Russian authorities have been keeping local opposition politician Aleksei Gorinov behind bars for expressing his critical views of the actions of the Russian military in Ukraine. After two years into his arbitrary sentence under the war censorship laws, Aleksei Gorinov is facing a new trial on the accusation of “justification of terrorism,” another charge that has been used to silence dissent in Russia. His health is frail. Russia should drop all charges and release Aleksei Gorinov immediately and unconditionally.
