Russia warns France not to take political action in Telegram CEO case

Russia has warned France not to take political action in the Telegram CEO case, and that charging Telegram CEO Pavel Durov with criminal charges may be viewed as "political persecution". Durov is a French citizen born in Russia and was detained in Paris for allegedly failing to control illegal content on the platform. He was released on bail but must remain in France and regularly report to the police. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov emphasized that Russian officials support Durov, who has Russian citizenship and is willing to provide assistance.
