To journalists, about the “media enclosure”: “You have been sold and bought […] and so you deserve to stay there, in that cloakroom”
English

Vladimir Voronin on Thursday, 20 February, to journalists in the Parliament’s halls: “You learned how to lie and I know why they sent you to that room [editor’s note – the press room in the Parliament]. Because you’ve sold yourselves. There is no channel, not radio station that is not sold and bought completely. You’ve been bought and so it serves you right… You have been sold and bought. And you know by whom and how. And so you deserve to stay there, in that cloakroom”.

On the same occasion, a Prime TV journalist asked Voronin: “So that we have no more questions, do you feel fine? Are you healthy? Please, confirm it to us, so that to set us at ease.”

Vladimir Voronin: “Should I confirm in private, or in front of everyone? What mechanism of confirmation do you suggest?”
