"The CPJ lists Russia as "the third deadliest country in the world for journalists" since 1991, exceeded in the number of deaths only by Algeria (19931996) and post-invasion Iraq.[20]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_journalists_killed_in_Russia#cite_note-cpj2-19> It is more revealing, perhaps, to set Russia alongside its G20 partners not just the USA and France, but also Saudi Arabia and China (see Table 1, in IFJ report).[21]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_journalists_killed_in_Russia#cite_note-20> Russia's problem, shared by certain other members of G20 (India, Brazil and Mexico), is not simply one of the number of deaths but that the killing with impunity has persisted over time."
