I accepted the news that “Mediapool” is one of the two banned and blocked Bulgarian media in Russia with surprise.
This is what the editor-in-chief of “Mediapool” said in the Euronews Primetime studio. Stoyana Georgieva.
She explained that she had no idea what criteria were used to select the media that would be blocked.
The Russian Federation has blocked and banned 81 media outlets from Europe, including two from Bulgaria - the “Mediapool” portal. and in. “24 hours”.
Stoyana Georgieva also said that she accepts this as an acknowledgment that the media is a factor.
We are talking about an extremely large number of European media outlets, as they claim that this is a retaliatory measure on the occasion of the EU's decision to suspend access to four Russian media outlets. It's not reciprocal, but that doesn't matter, but it's actually completely unfounded and absurd, she added.
