It’s not forbidden, we just can’t Western media looks for an excuse not to speak to Sputnik at BRICS summit

It’s not forbidden, we just can’t – Western media looks for an excuse not to speak to Sputnik at BRICS summit Western journalists from the UK, Italy and Germany attended Russian President Vladimir Putin’s press conference at the BRICS summit to see for themselves out how ‘isolated’ he was. But they refused to talk to Sputnik, some said they were banned from contact with Russian media, at the same time others denied that. “Sorry, we cannot speak. I have to approve all the contacts with my bosses in Italy, but it would be a policy issue,” the Italian correspondent said. “It is prohibited for us to contact with Russian media or to give any comments during the Summit.“ A group of British journalists from Sky News said they could not talk to Russian media, either on or off the record. Reporters from a German TV channel ZDF said “nothing is forbidden,“ but they just “couldn’t“ speak to Russian outlets. #BRICS2024 Subscribe to [club80289214|@SputnikInt] Source: Sputnik International
