Window on Eurasia: Moscow Seeks and Finds Assistance Abroad for Its Fight against ‘Extremists’

Paul Goble

Vienna, November 18 – Russian officials are finding “ever greater understanding” for and even direct support of their approach to fighting what Moscow calls “extremism” not only in the countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States but also in the West, according to an expert on Russian intelligence and security affairs.
In an article in today’s “Yezhednevny zhurnal,” Irina Borogan, who works as an editor at the Internet portal Agentura.ru, says that the efforts of the Russian powers that be “to control the behavior” of Russians “in the near future” will not end at the borders of the Russian Federation (www.ej.ru/?a=note&id=9638).

EU concern at Russia human rights


The EU is Moscow's biggest trading partner

Sweden's prime minister has expressed disquiet about Russia's human rights situation after an EU-Russia summit in Stockholm.

Fredrik Reinfeldt, whose country holds the EU's rotating presidency, said: "We exchanged views on human rights, the rule of law in Russia and democracy.

"This is an increasing cause for concern," he added.

Moscow and Brussels are still rebuilding relations after falling out over last year's Georgia-Russia war.

EU leaders were also due to discuss key issues such as trade and energy with their Russian counterparts.


" There is a level of mutual dependence - 
we depend on them for energy supplies and 
we are energy consumers for them" 

Alexander Stubb
Finnish Foreign Minister


Russian President Dmitry Medvedev was quoted by Reuters news agency as saying that Russia hoped to complete a new economic co-operation pact with the EU soon.

"We are now agreeing the points of ...

Interview: International PEN Marks Day Of The Imprisoned Writer

International PEN -- the worldwide association of writers -- marks the Day of the Imprisoned Writer this time each year. Its aim is to recognize and support writers who resist repression of their basic human right to freedom of expression. While International PEN campaigns on behalf of hundreds of authors all year round, this November 15 the group is highlighting the cases of five authors in five countries, representing five geographical regions. The countries are Cameroon, Iran, China, Russia, and Mexico. RFE/RL correspondent Bruce Pannier spoke to Sara Wyatt, director of the writers in prison committee at International PEN, about the campaign.

Amendments to Law on Treason Seen Protecting State Corporations

Andrei Soldatov


The new amendments to the Criminal Code, although they concern such crimes against the state as treason, the disclosure of state secrets, and espionage, are more aimed at protecting the interests of state corporations than the state. And even the most ardent supporters of Russian state capitalism can hardly claim that they are one and the same thing.

In any long-running process (and secure classification began in our country long before Putin) it is desirable to understand what grouping benefits from each of its specific phases. During Mr Primakov's premiership, for example, it benefited the lobbyists committed to ensuring that the decision-making process in the Cabinet of Ministers should be as closed as possible -- it was then that there was first talk about penalties for "leaks."
