Foreign press offers to help out Maltese journalists blocked by their own Prime Minister

I reported earlier on how Miriam Dalli of Malta Today tweeted that Maltese journalists have been blocked from the European Council Presidency Q & A with Joseph Muscat.

Brussels-based Harry Cooper of Politico has responded, offering to ask questions on Ms Dalli’s behalf and tweeting to fellow journalists that it looks like the Maltese government is trying to avoid awkward questions about the Panama Papers.
