💨 Abstract

Russia is planning to tighten rules for income received by individuals and organizations labeled as "foreign agents," who are deemed to be receiving support from outside Russia or under foreign influence. The rules will cover all income from intellectual activity and brands, including works of science, literature, and art, performances, broadcasting, inventions, and trademarks. Critics say this move is part of an intricate system of repression, stifling Russian artistic and scientific creativity.
