The pro-Russian regions of Ukraine they blocked the search engine’s access Google. The motivation of the separatists in the eastern parts of the nation lies in the alleged “disinformation” shared by Google, that he is promoting “violence against the Russians”. And they blame the American government.

In Ukraine, pro-Russian regions block Google

The news comes from a Telegram channel from Denis Pushilin, self-proclaimed head of the Donetsk People’s Republic. The separatist accuses Google of “promoting violence against all Russians” and is doing so because of the “manipulators of the US government”.

“If Google stops pursuing the its criminal policy and returns to mainstream law, morality and common sense, there will be no obstacles to his work, ”he added. He did not provide any proof or example of Google’s alleged propaganda.

Google has not commented on these statements. However, which seem to have already been heard and taken from what has been said in recent months by Russia. Since iThe Kremlin attacked Ukraine on February 24, accused all Western media to spread fake news and to be biased.

Russia banned Facebook and Instagram in March after a court rated the two social media’s actions as “extremist activity“. But for now, it hasn’t blocked some of the popular Google services like YouTube.

After the decision on Facebook and Instagram, the breakaway regions of Donetsk e you Luhansk they did the same. It therefore seems that once again they have taken up the script from Moscow in banning the search engine.
