NBC News correspondent Andrea Mitchell was scolded for her 'manners' by Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov after she shouted a question during his meeting with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

The exchange happened during a press conference in Moscow for Tillerson's first visit to Russia since he was appointed by president Donald Trump.

Video of the incident begins by showing Tillerson, Lavrov and other officials sitting down at a table at the start of the press conference.

Before anyone could be seated at the table, Mitchell started shouting: 'Mr. Secretary, the Russians don't believe the intelligence. How confident are you, Mr. Secretary—?'

But before the 70-year-old journalist could finish her sentence, Lavrov quickly interjected.

'Who was bringing you up?' Lavrov asked Mitchell in reference to how she was raised.

'Who was giving you your manners, you know?' he added while grinning.

Mitchell however claims that she was not the one being targeted, stating: 'My colleague Carol Morello was the brave journalist who started asking questions.

'Lavrov was looking right at her. I was on the opposite side of the room, behind him, out of sight. Perhaps I was a convenient foil, but I'm pretty sure I wasn't his target.'

The exchange comes as tensions between Russia and the U.S. escalate following Trump's missile strike in Syria last week.

This is also not her first incident with Tillerson, as a little over a month ago the veteran journalist was kicked out of a State Department press conference for repeatedly shouting questions at Tillerson.

Mitchell was escorted out of a meeting between Tillerson and the foreign minister for Ukraine on March 7 due to how she reportedly behaved during a press conference for the pair.

At the time of this incident, she was shouting questions at Tillerson about Russia and China.

'Mr. Secretary, China has said there will be consequences for the deployment now of anti-missile defenses in South Korea, can you respond?' Mitchell asked.

'Can you respond? Excuse me Mr. Secretary can you respond?' she said repeatedly, before beginning to question the Ukraine foreign minister.

'Mister Minister are you sure the Trump administration will be strong against Vladimir Putin?' she asked.

Furthermore, on Monday she blasted Tillerson for him refusing to bring the press pool with him during a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin.

'There is just an attempt, and it's successful, to shut down not just me but The New York Times, The Washington Post, Agence France-Presse, CNN. I mean, we're all just shut out,' she explained during a Politico podcast.

'You should not be flying into Beijing without a press corps. You should not be going to Moscow without the press corps. It's wrong.'
