In a new interview with RBC, Russian Human Rights Council Chairman Valery Fadeyev weighed in on censorship, wartime restrictions, returning offenders from the front, and more. Meduza shares several of his most notable remarks, translated into English.

“What’s the problem? Yes, some people invested in their Telegram channels and built businesses around them — that’s true. But there’s a war on. And compared to a serious war with the entire West, what we’re discussing here is trivial. These restrictions are so minimal they’re hardly worth talking about.”
