The Mixed Feelings of Moscow's Venezuela Community About Life Abroad


According to the United Nations, more than 3.4 million people have fled Venezuela to live abroad in the wake of the country's political and economic crisis. Some of them are living in Russia —which openly supports the government of Nicolas Maduro.

We decided to ask the Venezuelan community in Moscow what they think about what's happening in their country and their life away from home.

… we have a small favor to ask.

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.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just 2. It's quick to set up, and you can be confident that you're making a significant impact every month by supporting open, independent journalism. Thank you.
