Jenny’s Pennies

I have a new piece up at Amnesty Press (the paper of Amnesty Sweden) about Grigorij Pasko, a Russian journalist, activist and former prisoner of conscience.
Pasko was sentenced to four years in prison for espionage and treason after having reported on how the Russian military illegally dumped radioactive waste in the Sea of Japan.
In the article, he talks about how Russian society functions (or not functions), about the Yukos-case and Michail Chodorkovskij, and about his own work and activism.
Long version available on the website, shorter version will appear in the upcoming print issue of Amnesty Press.
Read the article here (in Swedish).

More from, and about, Grigorij Pasko can be found at the blog Robert Amsterdam.
