Alexander Makarov and Pavel Sergeev
In Buryatia, journalists of the France24 TV channel were detained in the border zone of the Kyakhta district while gathering information about the people killed in the special operation in Ukraine.
“We have such a situation. On the 20th day after our son’s death a film crew came to visit us. I understood that these people were completely unconnected with these events and had a very bad aim. I don’t want to besmirch my son’s name and ask the authorities to confiscate all the footage and hold those people responsible. These people should be punished for coming to people at the time of their grief. They ask stupid, more words I can’t choose, stupid questions, and what is the purpose of it,” says Tatiana Otto.
The video was obtained from the parents of Alexander Otto, a petty officer in the fifth airborne assault company of the second airborne assault battalion of the 11th AAB, a Guards sergeant, who died in Ukraine on May 10 during a special military operation. According to them, a certain, allegedly journalistic group was gathering negative information on Buryatia’s soldiers. On June 1, they were detained in the border area of the Kyakhta District and taken to the police in Ulan-Ude.
The detainees were Alexander Makarov, a correspondent of the Dozhd TV channel, recognized as a foreign agent in Russia and currently an employee of Agence France 24, and Pavel Sergeev, an employee of Agence France 24.
– Could you tell us please, why did you come to Buryatia?
– I have no desire to talk to you here and now.
– When can we?
– Let me have a smoke, talk to my comrade.
– One question.
– Let’s talk a little later.
– It was explained to us that you have come to Buryatia to collect discrediting material, false information about servicemen of the Russian Federation.
– I did not quite understand your question, answers Pavel Sergeev of Agence France 24.
The men got nervous in front of the TV camera, but the men could not simply run away either. Nervously smoking cigarette after cigarette the man tried to evade a direct answer. His 21-year-old colleague was full of water, while just recently he was active in the ranks of the opposition and furiously shouted various slogans. Now he has nothing to say and his colleague has to make excuses.
The lawyer who was engaged by the journalists to settle the situation actually confirmed that the ultimate purpose of the gathering of information by the journalists was to discredit the Russian army.
– As far as I know, they are dealing with issues related to the Russian servicemen who are involved in the special operation in Ukraine.
– So they give out discrediting information?
– Well… it is not known. Maybe that is why the Interior Ministry tried to resolve the situation this way.
– So you also think that they gather discrediting information about our troops?
– Yes, yes, of course, – answers Maxim Barlukov, lawyer.
In conclusion, after an administrative fine was imposed for being within 5 km of the border without an individual pass, both foreign media agents were nevertheless released. At the same time, a number of federal telegraph channels, which had already posted information about the detainees, noted that the group presented themselves as journalists from the Zvezda TV channel in front of the residents of Buryatia.
If it was America they would be jailed for 20 years in a bad prison. Thats after a “trial ” calling them Spies .

France 24 its a parazite Nazi and have a monkey in their anus !!! they are paid by Pedos !!!!
Yes, France24 is NATO/U.S. state dept propaganda. They’re fucking asshole propagandists. On their youtube channel if you make comments which question the narrative of their ‘news’ video–it is immediately ghost banned. France24: the shit and scum of modern western information warfare.
Surprise, surprise, russian people talk about russian war crimes commited by russian terrorists.. Russia is north korea v2.0. Shithole with poverty and high rate of HIV.
lgbt Hans expert HIV carrier—-more extreme —none in Russia—poverty in USA UK and western euerope , especially Scandinavia, Germany, France Spain than poverty in Russia….per UN data….you are a shithole!
bitter nazi Hans upset by full Russian victory…LOL
Hans the lgbt nazi crying, raging and having a full mental breakdown
Russia hasn’t even mobilized 10% despite all the talk of massive losses lool
Undercover journalism implying there from Zvezda TV to get people to talk might not be very ethical but a pretty common method to use in the west.
Should have thrown them in jail, or made them clean toilets at train stations all over Russia. France24= fucking asshole NATO propagandists.
So is Dozhd TV and all other libtard channels in Russia. They are lying about working for France24. Just look at their морды. But the lie worked, they got released.
This scum got away
WHY DID YOU LET THEM GO???? They should have been imprisoned for SPYING and spreading FALSE PROPAGANDA against the soldiers who died, a FINE is NOT GOOD ENOUGH we all know these are AGENTS of the West and are not NEWS MEDIA that is their cover same as the RED CROSS was caught gathering INTELLIGENCE material THAT IS SPYING and is actually punishable BY DEATH, it is a LEGAL RIGHT to EXECUTE SPIES and that is what these have been caught doing. Russia should have charged them with being spies and then EXECUTED THEM same for the RED CROSS who also were caught SPYING. – Z –
The title say about border zone, that’s why I thought it’s happened somewhere near Rostov or Belgorod, but Buryatia is ~5000 km away from the front line. For me it looks like these “journalists” were trying to collect military data about units at rear positions, how many soldiers left and how much still here to understand what part of RAF is on the front line. Footage of relatives would allow to say about “numerous losses” as western propaganda loves to do showing just one footage. The family shouldn’t even start talking with these vampires, because their intentions are obvious. Need to arrest them and put in prison for 2-3 years or longer, if they were spying at military facilities.
Liberal (i.e.pro-western) outlets were making the same dirty in 2014, when the war in Donbass started. They were desperate to find losses in the military and started to tell about imaginary victims of war. That’s how whole football team from Ural was “buried” in Donbas.) Insane woman Vasilieva took the list of football players and added them to other names. Later she moved to Kiev as all liberal shit do, who has no money for Berlin, Warsaw, Prague or even Riga and Vilnus.
Many journalists have clearly crossed the line between being journalist and propagandist involved in information warfare. If the latter is the case they should be prosecuted as combatants. It doesn’t matter if the target of their information warfare is the population of their home countries. Real journalists wouldn’t lend themselves for these practices.
