Today it was announced about the closing of the newspaper "Krasnoye Znamya". “Our editors, seeking to abide by truth and objectivity, should look at things the way they are. The conditions, economic and political, into which the oldest media of the Republic of Komi fell in autumn, 2014, don’t allow to continue to publish the printed version of "Krasnoye Znamya",” Valery Chernitsyn’s writes on the newspaper's website.

Among the political reasons for the closure of the publication there are conflicts with the authorities of the republic. Thus, the author says that back in 2009 it was the desire of the "Krasnoye Znamya" to independence that caused "a genuine anger on the part of management to administration and deputy head of Kazakhstan Alexey Chernov".

Unaccountability of publication, as follows from the text, has created a number of problems.

"We did everything we could. And we’ll still send our forces, hardened in the "red" detachments and battles, to the service of our readers," he said at the end of the article. It is not yet clear, how the editorial is going to continue to serve readers. The site may continue its work.
