Russia passed a new fake news law aiming to reduce dissent and censor the truth about the Ukraine war campaign - here’s what you need to know.
The new fake news law will give the government more power to block bad news from the war.that the law targets military-related fake news, carrying a penalty of up to 15 years in prison for spreading fake news.
The report says that the new amendments to the criminal code will also punish those who call for sanctions against Russia.says the punishments are stiffer for those who intentionally spread fake news or call for unsanctioned public action. It’s unclear what that means, and the amendments weren’t immediately available. But there’s a scale of fines and punishment in place.
The new fake news law in Russia might reduce dissent, stoping people from publicly sharing news reports they pick up from social media. But that won’t stop the flow of news from the Ukrainian war. Nor will it make it possible for the government to stop Russians from sharing news via encrypted messaging systems that are widely available in the country.
