Dmitry Muratov is a Russian journalist who strongly advocates for an independent press and is known for investigating abuses of power. He was awarded the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize, cited for his “efforts to safeguard freedom of expression.” Co-founder of the pro-democracy newspaper Novaya Gazeta in 1993, Muratov was the newspaper’s editor-in-chief from 1995 to 2017 and again assumed the position in 2019. The newspaper is known for its reporting on governmental corruption and human rights violations, and following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Muratov released editions of the newspaper in both Russian and Ukrainian in defiance of the Russian media watchdog’s rules.
