Questo il testo della lettera: «Ministro Lavrov, abbiamo lavorato tutti in Russia come corrispondenti esteri, chi per qualche mese, chi per decenni. Siamo scioccati e sconvolti dall’arresto del nostro collega Evan Gershkovich e dalle accuse mosse contro di lui.
Evan Gershkovich ha una lunga e significativa carriera giornalistica. Non abbiamo dubbio alcuno che l’unico scopo e motivazione del suo lavoro fosse quello di informare i suoi lettori sulla realtà attuale in Russia.
Cercare informazioni, anche quando questo significa disturbare determinati interessi politici, non fa di Evan un criminale o una spia, ne fa un giornalista. Il giornalismo non è un crimine.
Il suo arresto invia un segnale inquietante e pericoloso sul disprezzo della Russia per i media indipendenti e mostra indifferenza per il destino di un giovane, talentuoso e onesto giornalista.
Chiediamo alle autorità russe di ritirare le accuse a suo carico e di liberare immediatamente Evan Gershkovich».
