The government of Uzbekistan continues persecuting not only domestic "uncensored" journalists, but also foreign ones, including the reporters from Russia, the strategic partner country. Today’s "victim" is Vladimir Berezovskiy, the personal correspondent of Moscow-based Parlamentskaya gazeta and editor of Vesti.uz website. The alleged reason is the news of Russian information agencies, such as Interfax, ITAR-TASS, RIA Novosti, Regnum, Rosbalt and Ferghana.Ru, reprinted by Vesti.uz.
