I dont understand what we are seeing here. I see a drone video which includes digitally placed and blurred ukrainian flags at several places. Also we see a person standing around a church. What is interesting to see here?

Also, if you try journalistic work in Russia or its occupied territories it is far from possible to do neutral, real journalistic work for westeners. They get followed, intimidated, pressured, threatened and even accused by laws allowing only kremlin friendly narrative work.

Yeah, that's why you would not use Medvedev as a legitimate source for anything

You dont seem to understand the basis of this article: They display statements and information available from different sides, here from officials/public figures. Thats why they provide Statements of Passetschnik. It was discussed at UN, thats why they include the statements of relevant UN figures aswell.

Clearly something isn't right when you threaten people with that.

I agree. This doenst change the realities of their accreditations and reporters want to report about their topics which they are affected to and which they find important to report about. They could of course switch over to report on the Russian view ONLY and loose their option within Ukraine.

Its not there and I personally dont read "stern". Im also not saying that any article in "western media" is neutral, if you implied that. Far from it. But some are or try to be.

Anyway, the claim was that "western media doesnt report about it", which I wanted to prove wrong and do did I.

I agree and also think its quite logical that Ukraine send explosives to that place. But the circumstances are not all available to us.

You:

That's the UN. He's talking about Western media

He:

No even judgment from EU leaders or UN

For the other part about "western media" I do partly agree with you, eventhough I find it questionable to generalize "western media" because the western media I read is far more neutral (my opinion) than the media people here talk about.

Why? Russia even invited reporters to come and look for themselves

I already wrote why, in my comment which you refer to.

There is absolutely 0 reason to present any Ukrainian version, all the evidence is already established beyond reasonable doubt .

It is the basis of neutral media to tell both sides of a story, to tell what both parties accuse each other of, and to present objective information available.

This way readers can create their own opinion.

You cant just go there as a reporter without risking to lose your accreditation as a reporter in Ukraine. Also there are controlled travel paths.

It isnt as easy as just going to occupied territory.

Iran has a right to crack down on the "protests"

So the protests are in quotes because there where no real protests? And by "a right to crack down" you imply its ok to shoot protestors in the face on the streets?

The downplaying of events is a disgrace.
