Additional information:

The newspaper of the Milliy Tiklanish (National Revival) party, which has the same name, accused the blogger without evidence of lying about the distribution of humanitarian aid in the area of a disaster at the Sardoba Reservoir. The author of a publication, “Keeping a Blog or Mocking?” draws a conclusion about the absence of patriotism in bloggers who “who eat the bread and drink the water of this land but curse it”. The party leadership thus continued to get revenge against the blogger for critical posts about Milliy Tiklanish during the parliamentary elections of 2019.
