Four years since the arrest of Vilen Temeryanov: Journalism is not a crime – Russian aggression is a crime

Four years after the arrest of Crimean Tatar journalist Vilen Temeryanov by Russian occupation authorities, his captors remain silent. As his public advocate and President of CIVIL – Center for Freedom, I renew the demand for his immediate release and strongly condemn Russia's brutal, politically motivated repression of journalists in occupied parts of Ukraine.
