Анархическое движение

This text is a collective statement of Russian-speaking anarchist collectives (see the list of signatories below). It should have been published even earlier, but now it’s really the time for a consolidated statement about the war in Ukraine. We do not claim to represent the stance of each and every anarchist from Russia, but the need for a clear position, and contradictions associated with the war in Ukraine lead to the necessity to act as a united movement.

Father Frost Against Putin 2026 is a festival where Russian speakers living in Finland and beyond, Finns, and people of other nationalities come together to talk about freedom, solidarity, and a future without war.

We are bringing together not only activists, but also everyone who wants to understand what is happening and find their place in the world after emigration. We invite everyone interested in overthrowing the authoritarian regime in Russia.

The program includes engaging lectures, discussions, a tasty vegan lunch at a minimal price, and a concert.

On Saturday, the Bristol Anarchist Bookfair will take place at The Elmgrove Centre (Elmgrove Road, Bristol, BS6 6AH) from 10:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The event will feature 20 free workshops and presentations, including Anti-War Resistance in Russia and Anarchists by Antti Rautiainen in the Frome Room.

Former political prisoner and anarchist Ilya Romanov is in need of our help. After 20 years of imprisonment in Ukraine and Russia, a stroke, and numerous surgeries, he remains severely disabled — yet he refuses to give up. Ilya continues to paint, stay in touch with friends, and keeps his sharp mind and sense of humor.

This year, ABC-Moscow carried out three successful evacuations of anarchists facing criminal charges in Russia. Security forces wanted to send these activists to pre-trial detention centers, but instead they remain free — though forced into exile.

At the beginning of 2024, the Russian Ministry of Justice added the American Anarchist Black Cross Federation to its list of “undesirable organizations.” At that time, Anarchist Black Cross Moscow (ABC Moscow) publicly stated that it had no organizational ties to the American federation: ABC groups worldwide are autonomous, and Russian groups have never been part of the American federation.

Hi, this is Anarchist Black Cross Moscow. Our group has been helping imprisoned anarchists, anti-fascists and their allies since 2003. Now we are facing a level of repression against members and participants of the anarchist and anti-fascist movements unprecedented in Russia's recent history. We can oppose the repression they want to shut our mouths with by standing in solidarity with our imprisoned comrades and comrades-in-arms.

2024 was not easy for anyone: wars around the world, right-wing governments coming to power, tightening repression and screws were on the agenda in various countries.

The «Autonomous Action» Media Group is a community of Russian-speaking anarchists located in Russia, forced to leave it temporarily or living in other countries. «The most important war for us» is the Ukrainian one. The future of Russia directly depends on its outcome.
