Russian State Media ‘Deleted’ Host's Threat to NATO Countries

Kremlin propagandist Vladimir Solovyov called for the bombing of Norway.

Russian state media propagandist Vladimir Solovyov threatened to attack NATO countries during an interview, according to a journalist who shared a clip from his show. Julia Davis, from Russia Media Monitor, posted a video on X of Solovyov's broadcast, where he called for Russian troops to go to NATO's borders and for severed ties with Germany and the EU.

The segment appeared to be too radical for Kremlin approval, and the clip was "deleted" from the show and not posted on state media websites. Solovyov has long framed the war in Ukraine as a proxy battle with NATO, and his frequent calls for attacks on the West have raised questions about his alignment with Kremlin thinking.
