Kremlin: Internet Disconnections Made for Security Reasons

The Kremlin stated that recent internet disconnections in Moscow and other major cities were carried out for security reasons and in accordance with the law. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that ensuring security is the main priority and that the impact on businesses will be considered. The disconnection of the Kremlin's foreign policy advisor during a teleconference with US President Trump confirms efforts to restrict communication. The Kremlin is promoting the state-supported MAX service while blocking applications such as Telegram and WhatsApp.
