In 2025, Russian Telegram Users to Enjoy More Freedom Than Europeans, Says Durov Amid EU DSA Restrictions
Dec 31, 2024, 03:23 PM
Telegram founder Pavel Durov has stated that access to certain Russian media channels on the platform has been restricted in the European Union due to the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA) and sanctions laws. In contrast, all Western media Telegram channels remain freely accessible in Russia. Durov expressed surprise at the situation, noting that in 2025, Russian Telegram users would enjoy more freedom than their European counterparts. This statement comes amidst reports that channels of Russian media outlets such as RIA Novosti, Izvestia, and RT are no longer accessible to EU users on Telegram.
