The Moscow journalist seeks political asylum in the USA

Russian journalist Pyotr Koronayev, who used to work for the Moscow-based news website Baza, and his wife, Tatyana Kulikova, have crossed the Mexico-US border.

The journalist asked for political asylum in the United States of America.

The base reported on July 14 that the couple was initially placed in an immigration detention center, but Koronayev was later released, while his wife remained in custody.

It is not known when the couple crossed the border. Koronayev and Kulikova reportedly feared for their safety in Russia due to their public statements opposing Russia's ongoing unprovoked invasion of Ukraine and their support for jailed opposition politician Alexei Navalny.

Last month, Russian journalist Yelizaveta Kirpanova, who worked for the newspaper Novaya, and her husband, Grigory Manucharov, also crossed the border into Mexico.

They requested political asylum in the US, citing similar reasons./REL
