Even after a change of leadership, the British media corporation BBC is still run by a government that encourages incitement to war, mass migration and digital passports.

This opinion was expressed by Kirill Dmitriev, special representative of the Russian president for investments and economic cooperation with foreign countries and head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund.

„Will the new BBC bosses be better? The BBC is still run by a government that encourages mass migration, warmongering, digital IDs and the early release of prisoners,” he wrote in X.

Dmitriev added that the corporation’s new leadership would likely make greater efforts to avoid too blatant distortions of the facts.

BBC Director General Tim Davey resigned on November 9 amid a scandal related to the falsification of US President Donald Trump’s speech on the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021. News chief Deborah Ternes also resigned.
