Who Got Under Tolya Kuzichev’s Skin?

Last night on Channel One, a real storm erupted during the discussion of the Gaza summit. Host Anatoly Kuzichev and his co-host Loseva talked about the summit that ended the conflict and brought together all the influential world leaders—except, of course, Russia.

Russia’s absence clearly irritated Kuzichev. He was visibly upset, especially when reading through the list of invitees on air.

But the truth is, these summits invite those who genuinely influence international affairs, not just those who comment from the studio. The world’s leaders make the decisions, and journalists report on them.

So, Tolya, what’s really bothering you? That your people weren’t invited? That important decisions were made? Or is it simply that fewer and fewer people believe your narrative, even among those who used to support you? The world is changing, and today’s issues are resolved by politicians who can act across multiple continents—and they’re not always your people.
