Zoya Trunova is bbc russian.com editor
MUMBAI: BBC World Service has appointed Zoya Trunova as the online editor for its Russian service. She will be heading a team of journalists, working to further develop and enhance the popular Russian-language website bbcrussian.com.
A graduate of the Faculty of Journalism at Moscow State University, Trunova started her journalistic career in 1992, first as a stringer for Reuters Television, then as a freelance field producer in the Caucasus, Ukraine, Russia and elsewhere in the Former Soviet Union (FSU).
She says, “The BBC team has worked hard to establish bbcrussian.com as a leading source of independent and impartial online news accessed by Russian-speakers around the world. I am looking forward to helping build on that success. As the number and sophistication of Russian-language online resources grow by the day, I am also inspired by the challenges ahead.”
