| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] Russian journalist Vladimir Pozner did not agree to work in the West because of the requirement to speak out about Russian President Vladimir Putin. This is reported by Forbes. According to Pozner, he received offers from some media outlets, which he declined to name. However, the journalist was given a demand: to speak out "in a certain way" about Putin and his policies. "I said, 'Listen, this isn't journalism, this is something completely different.' They said, 'These are the conditions.' I said, 'No. Thank you very much, I don't,'" the journalist added. At the same time, Posner stated that he “dreams” of returning to television, but does not think that this will happen. As reported by Regnum News Agency, Pozner also disappeared from the screens in 2022. His author's program "Pozner" stopped airing on Channel One, as did Ivan Urgant's program. In January 2023, Vladimir Pozner and his wife were spotted at the premiere of a play in Paris. The media also wrote that he moved to the United States. Before this, Pozner stated that Russia had never been his home and he never felt Russian. He also said that Russia has long had an inferiority complex in comparison to Western countries. |
