The chairman of the parliamentary group of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms (MRF) Delyan Peevski has lodged a report with the Bulgarian Interior Ministry and the State Agency for National Security (SANS), requesting an investigation into who allowed a team of Russia 1 TV into Bulgaria, the MRF press centre has announced. Russia 1 is on the list of banned media in the EU.

“I see the opportunity given to a team from the media outlet, which has been banned from broadcasting on the territory of the EU, and which is a mouthpiece of the Russian war machine, to broadcast from the centre of Sofia, as a provocation to the rule of law and the respect of European values and the sanctions against Russia,” Delyan Peevski points out. In his motives, he goes on to state that Russia declared Bulgaria a hostile country, and that two months ago, Russia ordered the correspondent of the Bulgarian National Radio to leave the country.
