Well-known Russian journalist Roman Badanin, who stayed in the United States where he and his family were vacationing when his investigative group Proyekt (The Project) was shut down in Moscow in July, has started a new media outlet aimed at exposing abuses by Russian authorities.
Badanin's U.S.-registered The Project, which published a series of well-researched, unflattering, and sometimes embarrassing investigations into Russia's ruling elite, was closed after the Prosecutor-General's Office in Moscow declared it an "undesirable organization" in mid-July.
On September 6, Badanin announced on Telegram that he had started a new investigative group called Agentstvo (The Agency), a thinly veiled reference to Russia's controversial "foreign agents" law that rights organizations say is used by the Kremlin to stifle civil society and independent media.

In 2018, he founded the Proekt media outlet, which specializes in investigative journalism. Proekt was closed in 2021 after being listed as an undesirable organization, and Badanin left Russia for his safety.
On September 6, 2021, he founded the investigative online media outlet Agentstvo ("Agency").
