  "account": "On the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York, Russian state broadcaster VGTRK correspondent Valentin Bogdanov attempted to question Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky about when he would visit Moscow. Moscow's Kremlin had made that trip a prerequisite for a one-on-one meeting between the two leaders. Footage showed Bogdanov shouting at Zelensky, who was conversing with other journalists in English, repeatedly demanding in Russian, \"Vladimir Alexandrovich, when are you coming to Moscow?\" Zelensky initially paid him no heed, but eventually turned his head and responded with a curt, \"On a rocket,\" presumably including an expletive that is inaudible on the recording.",
