"A new bottom of journalism": the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reacted to the French channel's report from the perspective of the Russian army
The video, filmed in the occupied territories of Ukraine, does not even mention who is the aggressor in the war
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine has responded to a report by the French TV channel TF1, filmed at the locations of the Russian military in the occupied territories of Ukraine.
"TF1's report on Russian troops destroying cities in the occupied territories of Ukraine breaks new ground in journalism. They glorify the so-called might of the Russian army. This is disrespectful to those whom this army has killed. In addition, the TF1 crew visited the occupied territories, violating the laws of Ukraine," Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleh Nikolenko wrote in a comment on Twitter.
The French TV channel TF1 published a report filmed in Ukraine from the Russian side of the front line, from the occupied territory. The three-minute video shows the positions of the Russian army, the interior of dugouts, several drones and ammunition with comments from the Russian military.
The authors of the report talk about how the Russian military is preparing for the Ukrainian offensive, but never mention who the aggressor in the war is.
The video was later removed from the channel's website.
Later, France24 director Vanessa Burgraff called the release of the story about the Russian military camp in the occupied territory of Ukraine "an unfortunate mistake."
Background. As a reminder, the Jewish community criticized Putin's words about Zelensky's "Jewish origin." Putin said that his "Jewish friends" allegedly called Zelensky "a disgrace to the Jewish people."
