Moscow will apply “similar reciprocal” measures to Western media working in Russia in response to the ban of RT France from broadcasting in the EU, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said. This comes after the EU’s top court on Wednesday upheld a decision to prohibit RT France from airing its shows, accusing the channel of unfair coverage of the Ukraine conflict.
“The encroachment on the freedom of speech, the freedom of the media, in European states, including France, is both concerning and regrettable,” Peskov told reporters. “The Europeans are stomping out the same ideals they’re imposing across the globe.”
Peskov promised “reciprocal pressure” on Western media working in Russia. “We will similarly not allow them to work in our country. There won’t be a soft approach to this issue.”
Earlier in the day, the European Court of Justice upheld a ban on RT France from broadcasting its content in the bloc. The judges ruled that the channel was “not capable of demonstrating an overall balanced treatment by the latter of information” concerning the conflict.
Emmanuel Piwnica, RT France’s lawyer, said the verdict demonstrates the “disregard for the freedom of expression any news media must have.”
Head of RT France Xenia Fedorova said in a statement that the ruling shows that the bloc’s judiciary “cannot or will not oppose” the will of politicians.
“European politicians have chosen the path that is against democratic values on which Europe is based, such as the freedom of expression and diversity of opinion,” Fedorova said. “Despite the censorship, RT France will continue to bring different perspectives on the news, wherever it is broadcast.”
The European Council banned the broadcast of shows produced by RT and Sputnik, another Russian state-funded news agency, in March, citing “systematic information and manipulation and disinformation” in the coverage of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The decision was made shortly after Russia launched its military operation against the neighboring state in late February.
Western politicians have long accused RT of waging a propaganda campaign at the behest of the Kremlin. RT denies these allegations.
Earlier this year, the Russian authorities ordered German public broadcaster Deutsche Welle to close its office in Moscow. The move came after Berlin banned RT’s German-language sister channel RT DE from broadcasting in the country.
In response to bans and restrictions introduced by Western countries on several Russian media outlets, Moscow also blocked the websites of some Western state-funded outlets, including the BBC and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL).

If Putin is on the opposite side to the Scum on so many matters, then he has my support.
Germany is rationing power supplies by 15% which works out at more than one day per week, and it is cutting street lights, hot water in municipal buildings and demanding cold showers for the public. Wow. Those Germans really are making Russia pay. Hard-core!
“The situation is unpredictable,” said the Mayor of Hanover, Belit Onay of the Green party.
That’s because the politicians aren’t listening. Plenty of people predicted all this and they know how to reverse it. But I guess these policies driven by US aggression and imposed by unelected EU bureaucrats means Epstein really did get the footage.

I used to watch RT a lot. I noticed that while I agreed with most analysis of western corruption, RT trod very delicately about Russian affairs. Some of the documentary series like “Renegade Inc” were very good and may be available somewhere. Guests like Michael Hudson were particularly interesting.
My preference for RT over the BBC however is mediated by the knowledge that they are all part of the theatre.
RT lies about many things including the “Holocaust”, Putin’s whiter than white nature, aspects of the cold war, and its relationship with international banking. And this last one is the means by which the whole production set is made possible.
As I’ve posted before, you can access RT.com via the Tor browser, available here: https://www.torproject.org/ where the home country – e.g. the UK – can’t block.
europa is irrelevant !
Russia send your truth to the masses
in asia,africa + southamerica . they
are the future of the world !
The Russians should boot the BBC out of Russia and move to close down its activities worldwide.
The BBC rarely makes programmes any more (most are bought in), and even it’s ‘news’ is third rate drivel. In reality it is nothing but a huge CIA/MI6 intelligence gathering operation.

We all forget about this don’t we — but it’s very likely true.
The gangster lawlessness of the west continues. Russia’s ally Venezuela has been told by a UK court its gold held in Britain does not belong to the elected government of President Nicolas Maduro, but to the US’ 5th Columnist never-been-elected nobody anti-socialist Juan Guaido. Since when does holding another country’s gold reserves mean we get to decide who its government is and not its people?
Chances are that gold no longer exists. It’s been stolen by people who rigged the gold market to rig the price of the dollar. At ~$1,800 an ounce it’s not gold that’s expensive but the dollar ever more worthless. That’s why this verdict surely without legal basis has been passed–so the appeals process can continue, the paper trail burned and those responsible can put themselves as distant from that gold as is possible.

What is the EU’s top court??? Just another bunch of unelected jew and homosexual cockroaches dictating their rules and lies to dumbed down euro goyim. Whole EU is a suicidal pact and tyranny of unelected perverts and bribed traitors in countries governments. Kill them all like vermin. Some of the Russian nukes should for sure target Brussels, Strassburg, Frankfurt, Luxemburg and all other cities where these EU institutions are placed, including EU central bank.
God forbid the brainwashed beleaguered plebs in Jewrope get exposed to a slightly different propaganda perspective in the media…
Simon Smith–it always bothered me that RT had presenters who were sleazy American or British Jews just like our own indoctrination media
@Lewis.
Indeed.
I think there is a wanting to believe among people that if political party x is wrong then party y must be right. They want to believe that if religion abc is wrong then xyz is right. They want to believe if the BBC is wrong then RT is right.
This because people are more often moved by faith(ignorance) than reason. It is binary thinking. It is the thinking that spontaneously constructs strawman arguments to try and invalidate correct reason. It is the thinking that rejects nuance. Nuance requires that subtle reason to allow one’s neurons to squeeze through tight spaces; that allows for one’s interlocutor to have made some valid points and not try and misrepresent them for the sake of winning a “lawyer’s “argument. Nuance is a word loved by the wise and only regarded by the faithful as useful for getting rid of the letter “u” in a game of Scrabble.
