Marina Kalashnikova, Vladimir Shmelev, and other key members of the FLAS team shared their ideas with Novaya Gazeta about the Faculty's activities in Montenegro.

Novaya Gazeta, an independent Russian newspaper, published an article about the Faculty of Liberal Arts and Sciences in Budva.

This initiative emerged after the Russian government deemed the Liberal Arts educational model a threat to national security and traditional values.
