Vladimir and Evgenia Kara-Murza -- Their Struggle for Freedom and Fight for Democracy in Russia

  • Summary

  • Mere months ago, Russian activist and journalist Vladimir Kara-Murza thought he would die in Siberia, where he was imprisoned for speaking out against Russian President Vladimir Putin and the war in Ukraine.

    This week, he sat with his wife Evgenia and staff at the George W. Bush Presidential Center in Dallas as a free man, where he told us about his experiences in prison, his joy when released, and his fight for democracy in Russia — a country he loves and refuses to give up on.

    His wife Evgenia bravely advocated for Vladimir’s release during his more than two years in prison, and her efforts undoubtedly played a pivotal role in her husband’s release from prison in the August 2024 prisoner exchange between the U.S. and Russia.

    Hear more from Vladimir and Evgenia on his struggle for freedom and their fight for democracy in Russia on this episode of The Strategerist, presented by the George W. Bush Presidential Center.
