“My first contact was in mid-April 2018. For a long time, I have been following Benjamin Griveaux on social networks like many other politicians and NGOs, international organizations, representatives of all kinds ... and he therefore added me to mid-April 2018 on Facebook Messenger to start a conversation, ”said the russophile student at the start of this interview, according to a first extract made public by M6.

Alexandra de Taddeo was indicted and placed under judicial supervision, although she denied, according to her lawyer, that she took part in the dissemination of the images by her companion, Russian artist and activist Piotr Pavlenski.

An interview with a freelance journalist

The interview was carried out shortly after his release from police custody by the independent journalist Milan Poyet, who acted in the utmost confidentiality, before offering this document to M6.

"It is a young woman who is undergoing a major media storm, and she has lent herself to the game because she wants to express herself, quite simply," he estimated, assuring that the interviewee, who was accompanied by her lawyer, had made no conditions.

"No question has been avoided"

According to him, it is unlikely that Alexandra de Taddeo will give other interviews soon. “She is not going to run the TV sets and the interviews to tell about this intimate passage from the case. And that's why this interview is interesting, ”he says.

"No question has been avoided," said Stéphane Gendarme, the editorial director of M6. And "as it sweeps all the answers to all the questions in a fairly broad way, everyone will be able to form their own opinion," he promises.
