Russian journalists were again not allowed into Moldova
The Izvestia film crew was not allowed into Moldova today without explanation. The correspondent and cameraman were sent by plane back to Russia. They arrived at Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg on the morning of June 10.
The Izvestia newspaper reports this on its website, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
At the same time, the representative of the border police of the republic, Raisa Nowitski, lied, claiming that the group was admitted after an additional check.
“This information is not true, our colleagues were not allowed into the country, they are currently in Russia,” the Izvestia press service said in a statement.
The Moldovan authorities have repeatedly not allowed Russian journalists to enter the republic. In particular, Chisinau denied entry to a large group of Russian journalists, including RIA Novosti correspondent Timur Khursandov, representatives of NTV, REN TV, Life News and other media. Previously, a group of Russian artists who were supposed to take part in events dedicated to the 25th anniversary of the peacekeeping operation in Transnistria were not allowed into Moldova.
The chairman of the media commission of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation, Alexander Malkevich, who was not allowed into Moldova before Victory Day, publicly blamed the Moldovan oligarch for the incident, who usurped power in the country, Vlad Plahotniuc.
On Saturday, a coalition and government were created in Moldova, which removed Plahotniuc's Democratic Party from power.
