Press Secretary for President of Russia Dmitri Peskov said that RT should “protect its interests” and get an explanation from Facebook following the social media website’s decision to block pages run by Maffick media, including In The Now. He made the comments during his weekly telephone conference with journalists from Moscow on Monday.
“It’s no secret that many large companies that offer services both in social media and in other digital arenas are also appealing to hostile countries as tools to apply pressure to Russian media,” he said, adding that such behaviour would lead to a “loss of trust” and “serious damage to the reputation” of these digital companies.
“RT should of course protect its interests and get an explanation from this company [Facebook]. We know that they have had to protect their rights before and I hope that RT manages to do it again because that’s what needs to be done,” Peskov added.
