«Η Υπουργός Πολιτισμού και Αθλητισμού Λίνα Μενδώνη συνυπέγραψε την Διακήρυξη για αλληλεγγύη στην Ουκρανία, στο Συμβούλιο Υπουργών Πολιτισμού, Οπτικοακουστικών Μέσων και Μέσων Ενημέρωσης της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης, στην Angers της Γαλλίας», μας ενημέρωσε, χτες, δελτίο Τύπου που μας έστειλε με βιάση καθαροδευτεριάτικα, βράδυ, το υπουργείο Πολιτισμού και Αθλητισμού.
Όπου, μεταξύ πολλών άλλων, διαβάζω ότι «στη Διακήρυξή τους οι Υπουργοί Πολιτισμού, Οπτικοακουστικών Μέσων και Μέσων Ενημέρωσης της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης τόνισαν ότι πρέπει να διακοπούν οι σχέσεις της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης με πολιτιστικούς οργανισμούς της Ρωσίας, καθώς η τέχνη χρησιμοποιείται ως όργανο προπαγάνδας. Επίσης, πρέπει να κλείσουν στις ευρωπαϊκές χώρες τα ΜΜΕ, τα οποία ελέγχονται από τη Ρωσία».
Στο δελτίο συνάπτεται η πρωτότυπη Διακήρυξη στα αγγλικά. Όπου -τη διάβασα, την ξαναδιάβασα- εμβρόντητος ανακάλυψα ότι ΔΕΝ ΥΠΑΡΧΕΙ ΛΕΞΗ απ’ το «στη Διακήρυξή τους οι Υπουργοί Πολιτισμού, Οπτικοακουστικών Μέσων και Μέσων Ενημέρωσης της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης τόνισαν ότι πρέπει να διακοπούν οι σχέσεις της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης με πολιτιστικούς οργανισμούς της Ρωσίας, καθώς η τέχνη χρησιμοποιείται ως όργανο προπαγάνδας.
