Greenpeace International activist Dimitri "Dima" Litvinov
(Sweden) says goodbye to Sune Scheller of Greenpeace Nordic as he becomes the first member of the Arctic 30 to leave Russia. He is boarding a train at a St. Petersburg railway station.

The Duma has officially adopted an amendment that extends an amnesty decree to defendants who have been charged with hooliganism. It therefore includes the Arctic 30 (28 activists and two freelance journalists) who were arrested, following a peaceful protest at a Gazprom-operated Arctic oil platform.
