Immigration Struggles of Exiled Journalists in the U.S.: A Conversation with Mikhail Rubin

Immigration Struggles of Exiled Journalists in the U.S.: A Conversation with Mikhail Rubin

In 2021, independent journalist Mikhail Rubin was forced to flee his home after police searched his apartment. This came after the Russian government labeled his media outlet, "Proekt," as an “undesirable organization,” a designation that allowed for the prosecution of anyone associated with it. While in exile, Rubin was offered a prestigious fellowship in the U.S., which required him to navigate the difficult process of obtaining a visa amid strained diplomatic relations between Washington, D.C., and Moscow. After his initial visa expired, his renewal application was unjustly denied. Though Rubin eventually managed to continue his fellowship in the U.S., his legal status remains uncertain once the program concludes.

Rubin shares his immigration struggles with fellow exiled Russian journalist Elizaveta Kirpanova, who also faced significant challenges in securing her legal status in the U.S. In 2022, Kirpanova fled Russia out of fear of prosecution for her anti-war stance and journalistic work and sought sanctuary at the U.S.-Mexico border. She was granted asylum the following year after going through a tough court trial. In 2024, both Kirpanova and Rubin received a Press Freedom Grant from AFPC-USA.
