VIDEO: Russian Journalists Denied Access to Macron's Press Conference

Russian journalists were denied access to a press conference held by French President Emmanuel Macron. The event took place in India following the G20 summit. This was reported by the Mash Telegram channel.

The incident occurred in the waiting area while media representatives were preparing for the press conference involving the presidents of Turkey and France.

When our compatriot Katherine attempted to enter Macron's speech, a security staff member stopped her and asked, “Which country are you from?” Upon hearing that the journalist was from Russia, he blocked the girl's path. A dialogue then ensued.

The journalist recounts that after a brief argument, another staff member from Macron's press service intervened and attempted to break the phone that was recording the events.
