In an interview with RT, human rights activist Alexander Ionov called the statement against him "absurd."
“Anin is a person who studied at Stanford, lived in America, opened a public organization there, and operates there as an entrepreneur.
At the same time, he declares that my words that money is paid to him in the USA defame his honor and dignity.
What Anin claims in the lawsuit is, to put it mildly, strange, ”Ionov said.
In his opinion, by filing a lawsuit, Anin pursues very specific goals that are not related to justice.
“He is trying to find out my sources and publish them.
He is trying to understand how I work, what documents we use when we apply to ministries and departments, ”added the human rights activist.
RT tried to contact Roman Anin.
At the time of publication, it was unavailable for comment.
