Press conferences of countries are usually expected to be formal and diplomatic but not this one.
The spokesperson for the Russian foreign ministry, Maria Zakharova, got a telephone call from someone in the Russian government, ordering her not to talk about ballistic missiles.
The moment was captured by the entire world media as press conferences like these take place in front of the world’s top news agencies.
What Was Maria Ordered Not To Say?
The spokesperson was heard taking an order from someone superior not to disclose information about the ballistic missiles Russia launched.
The Russian military recently launched a wave of dangerous Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBM) into Ukrainian territory for the very first time.
The development was later confirmed by the Russian President Putin himself who used the moment to threaten the US and its allies.
Media organizations were not able to confirm if the spokesperson received a real call or wif as it was all staged to give a hint.
