In connection with the threats made against our colleagues from Novaya gazeta and Dozhd* TV channel by the leader of the Chechen Republic, we wish to express our solidarity with the journalists of these media outlets.

We draw the attention of law enforcement agencies to these statements by a high-ranking official, who is a general of the Interior Ministry, that break the laws of the Russian Federation.

We ask the President of the Russian Federation, as the guarantor of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, to intervene in this situation.
