OREANDA-NEWS  Russian journalist for the Sputnik news agency Pavel Zakovorotny was not allowed into the press conference of US President Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky. The US administration did this under the pretext that there were no seats in the hall.

The Russian journalist was accredited and included in the list for the event at the White House, but he was never allowed into the hall. It is noteworthy that he was the only journalist whom the administration did not allow into the press conference; there was a place for other journalists. Zakovorotny said that he registered a day before the start of the press conference.
