Pro-Kremlin Youth Movement Sues Media

Pro-Kremlin youth movement “Nashi” sued several Western media in a Russian court for defamation. “Nashi” is unhappy with its media portrayal: The Independent - “Hitler Youth,” Le Monde - “an ideological battalion serving the Kremlin,” Le Journal du Dimanche - “a fierce mix of patriotism and xenophobia.” “Nashi” claims $12,000 from each defendant, and has also sued several Russian media on similar grounds.
