In a rare act of public dissent against the war, the Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta has announced that its next edition will come out in Russian and Ukrainian languages, reported The Guardian.
Dmitry Muratov, the Nobel prize-winning editor of the paper, said that “together with our grief, we feel shame” about a war that he directly blamed on Vladimir Putin.
“What’s the next step?” he said. “A nuclear salvo?
“We’re going to release this next edition of Novaya Gazeta in two languages because we will never see Ukraine as an enemy or Ukrainian as the language of the enemy.”
He added a call for protests against the war.
“Only an anti-war movement of Russians in my opinion can save life on this planet,” he added.
