The photographer Ilya Varlamov was banned from entering Burundi because of the publication in his blog
“I can’t say that I was going to visit Burundi in this life again.”
On December 21, Ilya Varlamov said that the African Embassy of African Burundi, who had accused the Russian, who accused the Russian “insulting all the Burundians”, connected to him.
[Your publication] demonstrates that you pursued secret goals in Burundi. You abused the hospitality of the embassy of Burundi and the Burundian people.
The embassy hopes that you have enough courage to publish his reaction on your site.
From the letter of the embassy Ilya Varlamov
According to Varlamov, Burundi is the fifth country where he is now prohibited.
I can’t say that I was going to visit Burundi in this life again, so I was not very upset.
Ilya Varlamov
In the publication in question, Barlamov called Burundi “the country of the snuggest ********** [Lobotryasov]”.
Burundi is one of the poorest countries in the world. Her story in African is scary and banal. After gaining independence from Belgium in 1962, the country mired in endless civil wars and military coups. Some murderers replaced others, the civilian population robbed and exterminated.
The last “crisis” here happened recently, six months ago. Nothing unusual for Africa is an attempt by a military coup. People began to shoot without trial and investigation right on the streets, 10% of the population simply fled the country. You probably did not hear anything about it. The United States and Russia did not stand up for Burundi, no one discussed the problem of a small African country from the UN rostrum. It's just that Burundi is not going to Burundi.
Ilya Varlamov
Updated December 22. According to Varlamov, employees of the diplomatic mission of Burundi read his publication and “again offended”, after which they asked him to publish a press release from the embassy.

Moreover, his zeal in interfering in the internal affairs of Burundi is another proof that he was paid to harm Burundi's interests, and this is unacceptable. The embassy condemns such an attitude that testifies from the lack of attention and respect for the Burundians. Such publications can damage his own authority and personality.
