[HIGHLIGHTS] Politico: The United States insists on Ukrainian media coverage of not only successes, but also defeats

The U.S. insists on Ukrainian media coverage of not only successes, but also defeats.

The head of the State Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine called Telegram, in which anyone can “make a channel, start writing whatever he wants,” a problem for the country’s security. In the kind of democracy Washington hopes to see in Ukraine, “reporters covering a war, even if the news is bad, is better than total control” of the media.
