In this episode of our weekly media show Scoop, we meet Russian journalist Ekaterina Barabash. She fled Moscow to Paris in a daring, dangerous escape spanning 2,800 kilometers. Reporters Without Borders (RSF) helped coordinate her exfiltration. We speak to Barabash and RSF’s Louise Alluin Bichet about her ordeal and the Kremlin’s crackdown on independent media.
