Russian President Putin accused Western countries of persecuting Russian journalists to suppress inconvenient truths.
Russian President Vladimir Putin accused Western countries of persecuting Russian journalists to suppress inconvenient truths. His remarks followed Moscow's ban on 92 U.S. citizens, including journalists, in response to what he termed a Russophobic stance from Washington. Putin asserted that Russian media operate freely within the country, while claiming Western nations impose censorship on Russian correspondents. This exchange further complicates already tense relations between Russia and the West.
