Russian Foreign Ministry: West's silence on Tatarsky's murder speaks for itself

The Kiev regime constantly expresses threats against Russian journalists, and all this is hushed up by specialized international structures. This is how the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova commented on the murder of the Russian military commander Vladlen Tatarsky (Maxim Fomin) .

According to her, Russian journalists are constantly subjected to "harassment, literally stigmatized with special markings on the digital platforms of American Internet monopolies and arrange a" witch hunt "in the Western media" . Threats are increasingly being implemented, Zakharova noted.

Not long ago, the West was fighting extremism and terrorism, defending the interests of journalists against whom terrorist attacks were committed. Currently, the lack of response in countries such as the US, the UK and France speaks for itself, given their ostensible concern for the well-being of journalists and freedom of journalism, the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman added.

Zakharova stressed that Western countries have not conducted investigations into any case of the violent death of Russian journalists with the participation of Kyiv.

As REGNUM reported , Maria Zakharova believes that the reason for the murder of military commissar Tatarsky was the fact that the Russian journalist was dangerous for the Kiev regime.

On April 2, in St. Petersburg, an explosion occurred in the Street Food Bar cafe, where at that time a creative evening of the military commissar Vladlen Tatarsky, who died at the time of the explosion, was taking place.

According to the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, the number of victims of the explosion in the cafe has increased to 30 people.
