The Kremlin said about the end of the work of "Novaya Gazeta" Dmitry Peskov, answering the question whether this means the end of the era of independent Russian media, said that this is a "normal rotation process" - some publications are closed, replaced by new ones. It is not true to say that the era of independent Russian media is passing. The Russian media is very multifaceted, they are multimedia, they develop quickly and develop under conditions of quite tough competition, said the Minister of Communications of the President of Russia. Today, Novaya Gazeta stops operating in Russia after 33 years of existence. The Editorial Board announced its decision on October 30, and explained that the evacuation from the office in Potpakovsky Lane, where journalists have worked for almost three decades, is the disconnection of the system of donation and pressure from the Russian authorities - recognized by the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation as a foreign agent.
