Peskov explained the reason for the absence of Novaya Gazeta at Putin's press conference

“The new one was not accredited for the press conference of Russian President Vladimir Putin because of the human factor - they forgot to call the publication. This was announced on the air of the Russia-1 TV channel by the press secretary of the head of state Dmitry Peskov.

“Actually, they just forgot. It may be wrong of me to admit it like that, but we really forgot to call them, ”he said.

According to Peskov, most of the media, which were not called from the accreditation department of the presidential press service until the last week, contacted themselves, reminding themselves in this way.

“We remembered about“ Novaya ”two days before the press conference, but, unfortunately, it was too late to accredit them. Why? Because we had to take PCR tests within three days, this was the scheme prescribed by Rospotrebnadzor. And so they did not take part, which, however, in no way prevented the issue of "Novaya from being voiced", - Peskov specified.

On December 23, Vladimir Putin held a big press conference, at which the head of state answered the main questions of journalists. This year, 500 representatives of Russian and foreign media took part in the event. hosted an online broadcast of the press conference.
