Blacklisted journalists not allowed to attend Vilnius conference
The conference is dedicated to journalists’ security in the OSCE area and is appointed for June 7 and 8 in Vilnius.
Representatives of the Belarusian Union of Journalists received the invitation to take part in the meeting signed by deputy Foreign Minister of Lithuania Evaldas Ignatavičius.
However, the Lithuanian Embassy has not given visas to the representatives of the BUJ, informs BelTA. The diplomats are referring to the sanctions imposed by the Council of the EU.
Let us remind you that heads of the official union of journalists and leading reporters of the state mass media are on “the European Union’s black list”.
