Tensions With Ukraine Boil Over. And Russian Rappers Go to Battle

"From Russia With News" is a news and analysis podcast produced by Moscow Times journalists.

Journalists Elena Chernenko and Christopher Miller discuss escalating tensions between Russia and Ukraine after a dramatic naval skirmish. Pussy Riot's Maria Alyokhina tells us why Russian rappers might have become a little too political for the Kremlin's liking.

As you may have heard, The Moscow Times, an independent news source for over 30 years, has been unjustly branded as a "foreign agent" by the Russian government. This blatant attempt to silence our voice is a direct assault on the integrity of journalism and the values we hold dear.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. Our commitment to providing accurate and unbiased reporting on Russia remains unshaken. But we need your help to continue our critical mission.
