The pro-government Crimean information agency “Kryminform” denied registration for the correspondents of the Crimean Tatar TV channel ATR for accreditation at a press conference conducted in the agency’s press center. As the reasons for this, Kryminform’s editor-in-chief Nikolayev named ATR starting its broadcasting in Kyiv, and "absence of accreditation of the media outlet in the Russian Federation."  The editor-in-chief also expressed his distrust to "Queen-media", which ATR employees used for registration, and said this media outlet was not approved by "Roskomnadzor" ("Russian Supervisory Agency"), and thus he will not accredit this media outlet, too.
