A critically important court case about the limitations on free speech in Finland is unfolding in a Helsinki court this week.
Jessikka Aro, a well known Finnish journalist with the country’s national broadcaster YLE, has been the target of Finnish and Russian pro-Kremlin trolls after exposing the Kremlin’s social media troll factory in St. Petersburg in 2014.

Russia's state TV, Rossia 1:
The host, Vladimir Soloviev, interviews RT's editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan & points out with great pleasure that Trump—"the head of the democratic world"—never called RT or Sputnik "fake news," reserving that term for CNN, NY Times, Washington Post et al.

https://euvsdisinfo.eu/russian-journalists-fight-back-against-disinformation/

Factory of Lies is the name of a new television documentary introducing a number of journalists who have uncovered the hidden processes of the disinformation campaigns coming from Russia.
Some of these journalists are themselves Russians who have not been afraid of doing this kind of investigative work in the difficult conditions of their country’s highly controlled media environment.
Factory of Lies premiered on 5 June and is a co-production between Danish and Swedish public service television (DR and STV), Israel’s Channel 8 and the Danish Film Institute.

"Välkommen till Gotland!" ("Welcome to Gotland") The Gotlands Regemente soldiers will remember for a long time the warm welcome given by the natives on their return to this island of the Baltic Sea which is to Sweden what Corsica is to France: a popular tourist destination.

Do I have to remind that Crimea also is a popular tourist destination?

Here is a person responsible for pursuing the Kremlin's policy on @facebook .
Ulyana Zinina, Russian, works for @facebook as the Head of Public Policy at Russia, Ukraine and CIS states segments. Often she is appointed as a "Director for Interaction with Russian State Authorities". That is why so many Ukrainians are banned on the Facebook.

Way to go Pussy Riot!

I saw the match and that incident on TV.
But I didn't know it was Pussy Riot.
That kind of manifestation doesn't serve any good purpose.
I think on the contrary. Wrong forum.
Kylian Mbappé however did a high-five...

A nice government sanctioned protest, yes, that is what Russia, er Putin, wants.

Sometimes the dogs nose has to be rubbed in his excrement to get its attention.
