The Broadcasting Board of Governors stopped Voice of America Russian radio on July 26, just 12 days before Russia launched its military attack on Georgia. A weekly VOA Russian TV program was terminated in September. Despite protests from Congress and human rights organizations, the BBG still limits VOA’s ability to produce regularly scheduled Russian-language radio and TV programming. Videos shown here are for Web only. Emails demanding immediate resumption of VOA Russian broadcasts can be sent to the BBG executive director Jeff Trimble: jtrimble@ibb.gov.
