Russia's decision to declare the Moscow Times 'undesirable' requires the publication to close in Russia. This status can lead to prosecution for Russians who work, fund or collaborate with it. The Moscow Times, which has been operating since the 1990s, is popular among Russia-watchers abroad and has served as a training ground for many journalists.
