The statement said the foreign non-governmental organization, based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, aims to discredit the decisions of the leadership of the Russian Federation in both foreign and domestic policies.

The Prosecutor’s Office recalled that the Russian media regulator, Roskomnadzor, had previously restricted access to the website of The Moscow Times due to “systematic dissemination of inaccurate information about the activities of the authorities in carrying out the special military operation in Ukraine.

The newspaper is a permanent collaborator with other foreign NGOs, such as Medusa Project, The Insider, and IStories fonds, from Latvia, and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, from the United States, whose activities have also previously been recognized as undesirable on the Russian territory, the text adds.
