Space for Freedom: "We decided to leave while we still could"

A Russian journalist in exile and participant in our Space for Freedom program talks about the fear of being targeted as a journalist, leaving Russia and the psychological toll of life in exile.

DW Akademie is conducting the "Space for Freedom" project as a network partner of the German government's Hannah Arendt Initiative. Through this initiative, the Federal Foreign Office and the Federal Commissioner for Culture and Media are supporting journalists, media workers and defenders of freedom of expression in crisis and conflict areas, as well as those living in exile in Germany.
