Additional information:

It has emerged that the personal details of political analyst Artem Shraibman, of the independent publication Zerkalo, have appeared in the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs’ wanted persons database. The reasons for the prosecution have not been disclosed. Inclusion in this database means that a Belarusian citizen has been declared wanted in connection with the initiation of a criminal case. It is likely that Artem Shraibman was added to the Russian database at the request of the Belarusian authorities. In 2023, the Belarusian authorities designated Zerkalo as an extremist organisation.
