According to Odaily Planet Daily, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov criticized the EU's media restrictions, claiming that Russian users enjoy greater freedom than European users.
Durov stated on social media platform X that the EU restricts access to certain Russian media under the DSA and sanctions law, while Western media can still be accessed freely in Russia.
Durov's remarks reflect unease about the EU (Digital Services Act) and sanctions measures aimed at curbing misinformation and blocking Russian state media, but critics argue that they may undermine freedom of speech.
