Russian President Vladimir Putin today during the “Direct Line” made mild criticism of the Ekho Moskvy radio station, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
Gazprom really finances this company and does not interfere in editorial policy. This shows that we are paying attention to what is called freedom of the press. Although I agree that many of the things that are promoted there require very careful filtering,” Putin said.
As Politnavigator reported, earlier in the State Duma, LDPR leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky sharply criticized Echo of Moscow, and speaker Vyacheslav Volodin called for changing legislation taking into account European experience in order to influence the radio station’s “anti-state” policy, in his opinion.
