Russian journalists in Karabakh accused liberal colleagues of cowardice
Komsomolskaya Pravda correspondent Alexander Kots ridiculed his colleague from Novaya Gazeta, Ilya Azar, who justified his refusal to go to combat positions by the fact that “special conditions” do not apply to him, in which military correspondents Kots and Semyon Pegov work.
He wrote about this in his Telegram channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
"Ahaha! Ilya, if you are not able to solve a work problem, “special conditions” are a bullshit excuse for your bosses and your reader. No one has ever created any special conditions for me, neither in Kosovo, nor in Afghanistan, nor in Iraq, nor in Libya, nor in Syria, nor in Egypt, nor in South Ossetia, nor in Donbass... Maybe it’s just none of your business? For example, I don’t know how to do interviews with sheets of 50K characters,” Kots wrote.
Another Komsomolskaya Pravda correspondent, Daria Aslamova, reports that there are no liberals left even in Stepanakert.
"Hooray! I never thought that I would be so happy about Estonians! I was walking along an empty corridor and suddenly saw the open door next door. It's dark, but there are two people inside. Who are you guys? Estonians, yesterday we sat at the same table. Why without light? Blackout, they answer. Are you staying, I ask? Let's stay. Calm as tanks. Then I found several more guys in the bomb shelter. Not alone anymore! Guess who ticked first! Liberal media. I won’t name you, you can guess for yourself. And the names are well-known,” Aslamova wrote on her Facebook.
In total, there are now 8 journalists left in Stepanakert.
