⚡️🇱🇻 PERSECUTED LATVIAN JOURNO SPEAKS UP in IntelRepublic exclusive series.

Alla Berezovskaya reveals that international organizations for the protection of journalists ignore plight of opposition journalists in Latvia.

The situation with my colleague journalists is a complete infringement on freedom of speech, but no matter where we ask for help - nothing happens. I am a member of Reporters without Borders - and nobody has supported our plight.

I was due in Court on January 15, but I got the flu on January 12. I was granted absence, however on the day the police still arrived at my house and tried to forcibly take me to Court.

Berezovskaya's a Russian-speaking journalist in Latvia. Riga rounded up 14 of her colleagues simply because they speak Russian and worked with Russian companies BEFORE they were even sanctioned.
