Kremlin threatened with new “pressure measures” to Western media in Russia

Russia, in response to the decision of the EU court, to leave the ban RT France to broadcast in the European Union will take similar pressure measures on the European media. About this, as Russian media writes, the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Wednesday.

According to him, the Kremlin is extremely negative to such a court decision, since this is “an offensive to freedom of speech, to the freedom of the media in European states, including in France.” “This process causes us both concern and regret. Of course, we take and will take similar pressure measures for the Western media that work in our country, we will also not give them to work in our country, and there is no soft position here It won’t, ”said Peskov.

According to him, “Europeans themselves are trampling the ideals that they instill around the world.” “Indeed, RT is now actually blocked and cannot work in Europe, in the vast majority of European states, this is bad,” Peskov said.
