Russians still support Putin, says Nobel Peace Prize Winner Dmitry Muratov | DW Interview

For almost a year and four months, Russia’s invasion of neighboring Ukraine has been going on. How has the level of Russian support for this war changed? Dmitry Muratov, who rarely gives interviews, spoke about this in an exclusive interview with Deutsche Welle. The presence of a Russian journalist at the Global Media Forum in Bonn, Germany, even one so renowned for critical coverage of Vladimir Putin’s regime, had prompted criticism from some quarters in Ukraine and elsewhere. During his speech on Tuesday in Bonn, air raid sirens sounded briefly and a voice could be heard saying words to the effect of “take cover“ in Ukrainian. Audience members also shouted “Glory to Ukraine“ as he finished his speech. Muratov has long been critical of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and in the summer of 2022, he auctioned off his 2021 Nobel Peace Prize medal. Subscribe: For more news go t
