I was a panelist on journalist debates in the framework of Barents Spektakel festival in Kirkenes.

We discussed Prejudices about each other. Journalists from Russia, Norway, Finland and Sweden put forward their own versions. I shared my version: media itself   cultivate hate speech. I presented   examples reading headlines in Karelian media over the past six months. Those headlines present Finns, Norwegians and Swedes as quite criminal people

The nearer   Barents Spektakel,   more worries for journalists : so many events in five days ...A group of Russian journalists   covering  this extraordinary festival is formed at last. Thanks to a grant from the Norwegian Barents Secretariat and Nordic  Journalists Centre   (Denmark) for the ninth time we will be able to try this "cultural-political cocktail " as organizers- Pikene på broen- call Barents Spektakel.
