On Monday, July 8, NewsOne announced the cancellation of the teleconference. According to the channel, the decision was associated with threats that began to come to journalists.

According to NewsOne management, this initiative was motivated solely by the goal of restoring peace in Ukraine. At the same time, the Kremlin supported the idea of a teleconference, but Ukrainian President Zelensky opposed.
