| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [REGNUM] The Ukrainian channel showed a documentary with threats to Kiselyov and Solovyov The film "Payback" was shown on April 14 by the Ukrainian TV channel "2 + 2". In the film, the director general of the Rossiya Segodnya media group Dmitry Kiselev, the editor-in-chief of the RT television channel Margarita Simonyan and TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov are accused of torturing and killing the inhabitants of Bucha. Threats were made against leaders and representatives of the Russian media. The stated purpose of the film is to show that they will be held accountable for alleged crimes. Any involvement of Kiselyov, Simonyan and Solovyov in what is happening in Bucha is not confirmed by any evidence, nor are numerous inconsistencies in the Ukrainian official version of events mentioned. However, the film states, "An important component is the promotion of crime." "Incitement is sometimes worse than terrorism itself. Under instigation, I talk about propagandists of all kinds, these are their channels. All sorts of Simonyan and other propagandists are to blame," IDF officer and military analyst Yigal Levin said in the film. Russian journalists in the film are threatened: "We will come for you, no one will be able to hide." As REGNUM reported , in April 2022, the FSB of Russia detained neo-Nazis who were preparing the murder of journalist and TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov. Several members of the neo-Nazi terrorist organization National Socialism/White Power (an organization banned in the Russian Federation) were detained. All of them are citizens of Russia who carried out the task of the Security Service of Ukraine. After committing the murder, they planned to leave the country. RIA Novosti has more details Assassination attempts on Russian journalists Last spring, the FSB announced the arrest of six members of the neo-Nazi terrorist organization National Socialism/White Power, citizens of Russia who, on instructions from the Security Service of Ukraine, planned the murder of VGTRK journalist Vladimir Solovyov. As follows from the operational video footage released by the FSB, the detainees discussed the possibility of killing not only Solovyov, but also the general director of the Rossiya Segodnya MIA Dmitry Kiselev and the editor-in-chief of the Rossiya Segodnya and RT MIA Margarita Simonyan, journalists of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company Olga Skabeeva, Evgeny Popov, director Tigran Keosayan. Kiselev, commenting on Kyiv's plans to kill Solovyov, called lies the only method of information work in Ukraine, and noted that the persecution of journalists in this country has become a routine that is not condemned by either the state or society. He recalled other cases of persecution of journalists, including murders with impunity - in particular, Oles Buzina. |
