Volodin commented on the situation with the refusal to accredit RT and Sputnik

“It is necessary to proceed from the fact that double standards have now become completely obvious in the policy of the United States of America in relation to the media, in the policy of Great Britain and other countries,” Volodina quotes RIA Novosti.

According to the Speaker of the State Duma, these prohibitive measures are contrary to all fundamental rights and freedoms.

Earlier, Russian Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov called the refusal to accredit RT and Sputnik to a conference in London as a manifestation of absurdity.
