Was an honour to be invited as a keynote speaker to the excellent @Aleksanteri_UH conference this year – an event packed with difficult questions, intellectual richness, and great scholars. (Photo credit: Maria Fursina.)

We've had the honor of working with Mikhaylo Mykhailo Romanov of the Kharkiv Human Rights Protection Group. In a new blog post he describes prisoners who found themselves on Russian-occupied territories, which were then liberated by the Ukrainian army. blogs.helsinki.fi/gulagechoes/20…

Do I know any oncologists working in Australia, or someone who could point me to one they know personally? I have a very important question and would greatly appreciate any leads.

Griner is in Russia’s harshest penal region, Mordovia. Prisoners say you haven’t really experienced Russian prison unless you’ve been there. The village she’s in was built as a Soviet prison camp town in 1931. Talking about it tonight on @CNN with @BrianToddCNN on @wolfblitzer.

My comments for @TIME on what Brittney Griner could face in the coming weeks and months as she travels to the Russian penal colony where she'll be serving her sentence.

“You’re in this state of limbo between one detention institution and another, and your lawyers and your relatives don’t really know where you are.” @OZeveleva tells me of the deliberately drawn-out transfer process to a Russian penal colony known as etap. time.com/6231783/what-i…

Russia has no shortage of narratives about prison, from 19th-century revolutionaries to Solzhenitsyn & Navalny. In this guest essay, political sociologist @ozeveleva explains how their experiences with food in prison are part of another outrageous story. meduza.io/en/feature/202…

I’ve been off Twitter lately as I re-learn to think and write in the context of what’s happening. But here’s a small thing I wrote as I grapple with all this - about use of prisons in Russia to silence the anti-war movement, and the things we learn about prisons in the process.

What do we know about background and social position of #Russian soldiers, who are deployed in #Ukraine? BBC analysed publicly available info about 1083 Russian servicemen, who were killed in action. Here are some tendencies were found out. Thread

Beyond the fog of war, a knowledge iron curtain has descended across the continent. The silences, filters, and risks shaping Russia commentary today are unlike anything we've seen over the past years. Russia knowledge in the West was already patchy and selective - now it's dire.
Dr. Olga Zeveleva@OZeveleva

On Russia analysis: I just want to remind everyone that an unprecedented number of experts from Russia/on Russia have gone quiet or silent because describing current events for what they are puts them and their families at risk. Those commenting now are either very brave or safe.
