Re: Protesters, police clash in Russia

"The Austrian embassy was involved in scheduling an interview with the Russian president on Austrian ORF television, however, that interview has been cancelled because of “unfriendly reportage before the state visit,” according to the station.
The Austrian television channel had announced that, along with the interview with Putin, there would be coverage of conditions in Chechnya. “They just told us that the coverage in tendentious and because of that it would be improper to give an interview,” ORF Moscow bureau chief Suzanne Scholl explained."
