Answer

In 2017, Dmitry Muratov stepped down as Novaya Gazeta's editor-in-chief after 24 years at the helm. He had previously served as the newspaper's deputy editor from 1995 to 1997. Muratov's resignation was seen as a blow to independent journalism in Russia, as Novaya Gazeta is one of the country's few remaining independent newspapers.
