4 | Russian environmentalist Evgeny Vitishko is spending the next 3 years of his life in prison, after a kangaroo court convicted him earlier this year of spray-painting a fence built illegally on national park land in 2012. | Migadra mandritra ny 3 taona ilay Rosiana mpandala ny tontolo iainana, Evgeny Vitishko, taorian'ny niampangan'ny sarintsarim-pitsaràna iray azy tany am-piandohan'ity taona ity ho nanatsifotra loko tamin'ny fefy iray naorina tsy ara-dalàna tamin'ny 2012 tao amin'ny valan-javaboaharim-pirenena. |
5 | Before his arrest and imprisonment, Vitishko worked tirelessly to expose crimes against the environment, including damage caused by the construction of a lavish resort for the governor of Krasnodar. | Talohan'ny fisamborana sy ny fanagadrana azy dia niasa tsy nahatsiaro reraka nampibaribary ireo heloka bevava atao amin'ny tontolo iainana izy, isan'izany ny fahasimbana nateraky ny fananganana ny tanàna midadasika be an'ny governoran'i Kransodar. |
6 | This summer, activists at freevitishko.org launched a signature drive through the global civic organization “Avaaz.” | Nanao fanentanana fanangonan-tsonia tamin'ny alàlan'ny Fikambanan'ny fiarahamonim-pirenena maneran-tany “Avaaz” ireo mpikambana ao amin'ny freevitishko.org (avoahy Vitishko) tamin'ity lohataona ity. |

8 | Evgeny Vitishko is a foremost Russian environmentalist, a member of the Environmental Watch on the North Caucasus (EWNC), and a veteran of the environmental movement in the North Caucasus region. | Rosiana voalohany mpandala ny tontolo iainana i Evgeny Vitishko, mpikambana amin'ny Andrimason'ny Tontolo Iainana (EWNC) any Kaokazy Avaratra izy no sady ny tranainy amin'ny hetsika ekolojika any amin'ny faritra Kaokazy Avaratra. |
9 | For many years, he has worked to prevent the destruction of Russia's national parks and publicized pollution on the Black Sea shore. | Niasa an-taona maro nanakana ny fandravana ny valan-javaboahary nasionaly any Rosia izy no sady nampahafantatra ihany koa ny be sy ny maro ny fandotoana ny morontsiraky ny Ranomasina Mainty. |
10 | Vitishko has also inspired other grassroots activists across Russia, promoting the principle of “think globally, act locally.” | Nanetsika ny aingam-panahin'ireo mpikatroka mafàna fo eny ifotony manerana an'i Rosia ihany koa i Vitishko, hampiroborobo ny foto-kevitra “misaina an'izao tontolo izao, misaina ny eo an-toerana”. |
11 | The government began persecuting Vitishko in earnest, after he and fellow environmentalist Suren Gazaryan publicized environmental damage caused by the illegal construction of villas for Russia's rich and powerful. | Nanomboka nisotasota an'i Vitishko avy hatrany ny governemanta taorian'ny nampirantian'izy sy ilay namany mpiaro tontolo iainana mpanara-dia azy, Suren Gazaryan, ny ireo faharavan'ny tontolo iainana vokatry ny fananganana tsy ara-dalàna ny fonenan'ireo Rosiana mpanankarena sy matanjaka. |
12 | (The mansions, allegedly belonging to President Putin, Krasnodar Governor Tkachev, and Patriarch Kirill, are located on protected land along the Russian Black Sea.) | ( Heverina fa an'ny Filoha Putin, an'i Tkachev governoran'i Krasnodar, ary an'i Kirill mpitondra fivavahana ireo lapabe naorina ao amin'ny faritra voaaro manamorona ny Ranomasina Mainty Rosiana). |
13 | Vitishko and Gazaryan revealed that construction workers were destroying the habitat of an endangered species of pine tree. | Napoitran'i Vitishko sy Gazaryan fa noravan'ireo mpiasa nanao ireo trano ireo ny faritra nisy ilay karazan-kazo “sapin” efa ahiana ho lany taranaka. |
14 | Noticing an illegally installed fence, Vitishko and Gazaryan filed complaints with Russia's environmental protection agencies, but officials responded by denying the existence of the fence. | Nametraka fitarainana niaraka tamin'ireo antokon-draharaha Rosiana miandraikitra ny fiarovana ny tontolo iainana i Vitishko sy i Gazaryan rehefa nahatsikaritra fefy natsangana tamin'ny fomba tsy ara-dalàna, nefa dia novalian'ny manampahefana fa tsy misy izany fefy izany. |
15 | To prove the authorities wrong, Vitishko and Gazaryan held a demonstration at the fence, where someone in attendance spray-painted protest slogans criticizing the Governor and the illegal construction. Police responded by charging Vitishko and Gazaryan with the “deliberate destruction or damage to property resulting in significant damage and motivated by hooliganism,” citing article 167, section 2, of the Russian Criminal Code. | Mba hanaporofoana ny hadisoan'ireo manampahefana ireo dia nanao hetsika teo amin'ilay fefy i Vitishko sy Gazaryan, izay nanoratan'ny olona iray nanatrika teo tamin'ny ‘loko atsifotra' teny fanevam-panoherana mitsikera ny governora sy ilay fanorenana tsy ara-dalàna Novalian'ny mpitandro filaminana tamin'ny fiampangàna an'i Vitishko sy i Gazaryan taminny “fandravàna niniana natao na famotehana fananan'olona niafara taminà fahasimbàna lehibe sy natosiky ny asan-jiolahy,” izay nitanisàny ny andininy faha 167, andalana faha 2, ao amin'ny lalàna Rosiana momba ny heloka bevava. |

17 | When the state threatened to charge him with other crimes, Gazaryan fled the country. | Raha mbola nandrahona azy aminà heloka hafa ny fitondrana, dia nandao ny firenena i Gazaryan. |
18 | In 2014, he won the Goldman Prize for protecting the environment. | Azony ny Loka ‘Goldman'-n'ny fiarovana ny tontolo iainana, taona 2014. |
19 | Evgeny Vitishko stayed in Russia and continued his work. | Evgeny Vitishko kosa nijanona tany Rosia ary nanohy ny asany. |
20 | In November 2013, prior to the Sochi Olympic Games, he announced the publication of a new report of the EWNC on the environmental impact of Olympic construction in Sochi. | Tamin'ny Novambra 2013, talohan'ny Lalao Olaimpika Sochi, nolazainy ny famoahana tatitra iray vaovao avy amin'ny EWNC momba ny fiantraikan'ireo fanorenana fotodrafitr'asan'ny Olaimpika any Sochi. |
21 | Vitishko highlighted how Russia amended several federal laws to accommodate Olympic construction on protected lands. | Nasongadin'i Vitishko ny fomba nanovàn'i Rosia ireo lalàna federaly maro mba hahafahana manangana ny fotodrafitr'asan'ny lalao Olaimpika amin'ny faritra arovana. |
22 | Indeed, the changes severely diluted Russia's environmental protections, accelerating development throughout Russia (not just in Sochi). | Vokany, tena nanamaivana ny fiarovana ny tontolo iainana Rosiana ireo fanovàna ireo ary nanafaingana ny fivoarana nanerana an'i Rosia (tsy tany Sochi ihany). |
23 | According to Vitishko, Russia now faced the threat of deforestation on a massive scale, to the degree that the entire planet's environment will be affected. | Miatrika loza mitataon'ny mety ho fahafonganan'ny ala amin'ny ankapobeny, tonga amin'ny haavo izay hisian'ny fiantraikan'izany amin'ny tontolo iainan'ny tany manontolo mihitsy i Rosia amin'izao fotoana izao, araka ny filazan'i Vitishko. |
24 | In December 2013, the authorities changed Vitishko's suspended sentence into a real one, sending him to a penal colony, on grounds that he supposedly “violated his curfew.” | Ny Desambra 2013, novàn'ny fitondrana ho sazy mihatra ilay sazy mihanton'i Vitishko, tamin'ny fandefasany azy ho any aminà fonja iray noho ny antony lazaina fa ‘ tsy nanaja ny fifanarahana izy”. |
25 | He is imprisoned in Tambov, to this day. | Migadra any Tambov izy hatramin'izao. |
26 | If the “Free Vitishko” campaign collects over 20,000 signatures in the next few weeks, Avaaz will distribute the petition through its global platform, putting the effort on track for 100,000 signatures, granting Vitishko's case some much needed publicity. | Raha toa ka mahangona sonia maherin'ny 20.000 ny fanentanana ” Avoahy Vitishko” amin'ny herinandro ho avy eo dia ho zarain'ny Avaaz ao amin'ny sehatra iraisam-pireneny ilay fangatahana, ary mbola hiezaka izy mba hahangona sonia 100.000 sy hanome fanentanana ilaina sy misimisy kokoa ho an'ny tranga mahazo an'i Vitishko. |
27 | Russia's environmentalists are relying on the international community's solidarity. | Matoky ny firaisankinan'ny vondrom-piarahamonina iraisam-pirenena ireo Rosiana mpandala ny tontolo iainana. |
