Ban on printing Restrictions on the distribution of printed edition |
The Belarusian Press House refused to print the new issue of the Komsomolskaya pravda.
The reason was the late delivery of the issue. The August 20 issue was not printed because the editors did not inform the printing house that it would be a double issue.
Subsequently, the editorial board received a letter from the printing house stating that, due to COVID-19, the company had problems obtaining parts and supplies for the machines. Therefore, they had to suspend printing, and the printing house had state newspapers as a priority.
Other Belarusian printing houses refused to print the newspaper.
As a result, the August 18 and 20 issues of the newspaper were not printed in Belarus. The issues for August 21, 22 and 25 were printed in Russia.
Belposhta and Belsayuzdruk stopped distributing Komsomolskaya pravda. The newspaper launched distribution through the editorial office, supermarkets, and chain stores. |
