Argimón questioned the suspension of RT on Vera TV and called for maintaining different perspectives
The vice president referred to Antel’s decision to interrupt the Russian signal on the platform. According to her, citizens must have the elements needed to form a position.
The Vice President of the Republic, Beatriz Argimón, spoke out about Antel’s decision to suspend the broadcast of the Russian signal RT on Vera TV and said it is important to hear different perspectives.
According to 970 Universal, Argimón said that citizens must have the elements needed to form their own position. In that sense, she raised the need to consider more than one view on the issue.
According to that outlet, her position aligns with that of President Luis Lacalle Pou, who did not support the resolution adopted by Antel President Gabriel Gurméndez.
Gurméndez had said that RT is a channel “in the service of propaganda and justification of Russia’s violent military invasion of Ukraine,” and announced that the immediate suspension of its broadcast on Vera TV had been ordered.
