“Do the articles published by ‘Ulitsa Moskovskaya’ influence the decisions taken by state institutions? This is pretty much the question that the experts from the South State University in Rostov-on-Don will be answering soon. […] Several of our articles, which the Justice Ministry thought to represent our political activity, were referred for analysis. In our opinion, those were just opinions which the Russian Constitution guarantees us to be able to express. The answer must be given by August 12, and then we will know the true objective behind the newspaper – expressing opinions or influencing state bodies,” he wrote.
