Golden Finance reported that Telegram CEO Pavel Durov criticized the EU’s media restrictions, emphasizing that Russian users enjoy greater freedoms than European users. On Tuesday, Durov commented in a post on social media platform Will Russian Telegram users enjoy more freedom than Europeans in 2025? Durov's comments reflect growing unease over the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA) and sanctions aimed at curbing disinformation and blocking Russian state media. While the EU considers these measures essential to safeguarding information integrity, critics, including Durov, believe they could erode the principle of freedom of expression.
