Article reports that Dmitry Medvedev, Russian President, chose Novaya Gazeta, a newspaper known for its sharp criticism of the Kremlin, for his first interview in a Russian publication, April 2009. The decision was seen as a sign that Mr Medvedev is trying to establish an independent and more liberal persona than Vladimir Putin, his predecessor and now Prime minister. Novaya Gazeta has paid a high price for editorial independence - four of its reporters have been killed or died in suspicious circumstances. |
