Cathrin Kahlweit in conversation with Andrei Soldatov
RUSSIA’S LOST GENERATION
Andrei Soldatov is one of the most renowned Russian journalists. Together with his partner Irina Borogan he focuses on security politics and Russia’s secret services; they founded the website agentura.ru and excel in investigative journalism. But the regime does not forgive publications like „The Red Web“, „The New Nobility“ or „The Compatriots“ about the heritage of the KGB and the complete takeover of the country by the FSB: The couple had to flee to London, where they live in exile.
For their new book “Our Dear Friends in Moscow: The Inside Story of a Broken Generation” they asked former colleagues, reporters and friends about their decision to stay in Moscow and to serve the current regime. ThesE answers tell of submission, fear, compromises and convictions.
