He started his career as a war correspondent at Russia\u00b4s most influential newspaper but today he is best known as a best-selling author and founding editor-in-chief of Dozhd, which was the only independent news TV-channel at the time. Dozhd e.g. covered politically sensitive issues such as the street protests in Moscow in 2011 and 2012 and the Ukraine conflict. In 2015 Mikhail authored the book \u201eAll the Kremlin\u00b4s Men: Inside the Court of Vladimir Putin\u201c. The book was a number-one best-seller in Russia for four months after its release. The book has been translated into many languages and will be published in English in September 2016. In 2014 the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) honored Mikhail Zygar with the annual International Press Freedom Award.<\/p>\n<p>Reviews about \u201eAll the Kremlin\u00b4s Men\u201c from New York Times, Washington Post, CNN and more can be found <a href=\"http:\/\/www.publicaffairsbooks.com\/book\/hardcover\/all-the-kremlins-men\/9781610397391\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4981 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/nordichouse.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/1305922132221-640x427.jpg\" alt=\"1305922132221\" width=\"348\" height=\"232\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/nordichouse.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/1305922132221-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/nordichouse.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/1305922132221.jpg 700w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 348px) 100vw, 348px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 348px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 348\/232;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Arkady Moshes<\/strong> is Program Director for the EU Eastern Neighborhood and Russia research program at the Finnish Institute of International Affairs (Finland).
