Russian is not politics. It’s literature, history, poetry.  
We demand its return to restore cultural freedom for writers around the world.

 — Who is affected?

Writers, poets, translators, and readers around the world who use the Russian language are now unable to publish their books on Amazon KDP. The removal of Russian as a manuscript language has silenced the voices of millions — not only in Russia, but across Europe, Asia, and the global diaspora.

— What’s at stake?

When a language is removed from a publishing platform, it’s not just text that disappears — it’s stories, memories, philosophies, and identities. If Amazon does not restore Russian to KDP, it sets a dangerous precedent where languages and cultures can be excluded based on political tensions. This goes against the very spirit of global publishing and open literature.

— Why now?

This silent removal happened over two years ago. It’s time to bring it into the light. Authors are still writing. Readers are still waiting. Culture must not be held hostage to politics. The world needs more voices — not fewer. And every language, including Russian, deserves the right to be heard.
