South Africa stopped a Ukrainian delegation from attempting to silence Russian media.

South Africa POV: The Ukrainian delegation asked to remove the RT microphone at a press conference of the Foreign Ministers of South Africa and Ukraine, but the South African side did not allow this.

After this unsuccessful attempt, the Ukrainian minister decided to cover the channel's logo with a book called "Crimea is Ours. The History of the Russian Myth." However, the South African representatives did not allow this either, reminding the Ukrainian delegation that they were not in their own country.
