Russia's Permanent Representative to the OSCE spoke about the increasing discrimination of Russian media in Europe

Cases of discrimination against Russian media from the Baltic region have spread to other European countries, Alexander Lukashevich, Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the OSCE, told Izvestia.

"The Baltic countries are no longer the "leaders" in issues of harassment of the Russian media — no less gross violations of the principles of freedom of speech have become more frequent in other OSCE participating states, in particular in Belgium, Greece, Romania, France, Germany, Switzerland and others," the permanent representative said.

At the same time, Finland, as the OSCE Chairman, does not respond to violations of the principles of freedom of speech, he noted.
