A Sad Loss


Some sad news today that our colleague, Habibullo Batyrov, who had worked for RFE/RL's Uzbek Service in the Tajik capital Dushanbe, has died after a long illness.

Batyrov started working for RFE/RL in 1995 at a time when the civil war was raging in Tajikistan. He was known as a first-rate journalist.

Written by RFE/RL editors and correspondents, Transmission serves up news, comment, and the odd silly dictator story. While our primary concern is with foreign policy, Transmission is also a place for the ideas -- some serious, some irreverent -- that bubble up from our bureaus. The name recognizes RFE/RL's role as a surrogate broadcaster to places without free media. You can write us at transmission+rferl.org
