Zaharova zahodnim nevladnim organizacijam: Boste od Pariza zahtevali izpustitev Durova ali ste zdaj tiho?

Uradna predstavnica ruskega zunanjega ministrstva (MZZ) Marija Zaharova je komentirala aretacijo ustanovitelja Telegrama Pavla Durova in objavila seznam zahodnih nevladnih organizacij, ki so leta 2018 od ruskih oblasti zahtevale »odpravo ovir« pri delu Telegrama in vprašala, ali so se danes pripravljeni postaviti v zaščito v Franciji aretiranega ustanovitelja omenjenega družbenega omrežja.

Maria Zakharova's commentary on Pavel Durov's arrest:

"The Russian embassy in Paris, as is customary in cases involving the detention of Russian citizens by local authorities, promptly took action. It is unnecessary to remind our diplomats of their functional duties.

»Spomnim se, kako je leta 2018 26 nevladnih organizacij, med njimi 'Human Rights Watch', 'Amnesty International', 'Freedom House', 'Novinarji brez meja', 'Odbor za zaščito novinarjev' in drugih, obsodilo odločitev ruskega sodišča, da blokira Telegram,« je Zaharova zapisala na Telegramu.

Uradna predstavnica ruskega MZZ-ja je spomnila, da so zahodne nevladne organizacije tedaj od Rusije zahtevale, naj Telegramu ne stoji na poti.

Natančneje, v tistem trenutku je prišlo do pravnih zahtevkov proti Telegramu, »kot so obstajali v mnogih državah zaradi tehničnih parametrov sistema šifriranja«, je dejala Zaharova.

France just arrested Pavel Durov, founder & CEO of the encrypted, uncensored Telegram platform. The need to protect free speech has never been more urgent.

»Kljub temu je bil Durov ves ta čas na prostosti in je še naprej razvijal svojo platformo,« je dodala.

With 20 years on the line, do you think Durov will troll the French like he did the Russian FSB in 2017 when he sent them those fake 'encryption keys'?

Postavlja se vprašanje, ali se je zahodni svet pripravljen boriti za svobodo šele v primeru, ko naj bi to svobodo ogrožala Rusija, ali pa bo od Pariza zdaj zahteval izpustitev Pavla Durova na prostost.

When Telegram was useful for sowing discord and helping to organize unrests in Russia, Iran and several other countries that the US wanted to destabilize or wanted a regime change in, the media was praising Pavel Durov as a freedom fighter standing up to tyranny. pic.twitter.com/1AVeDHbdxx

Spomnimo, francoska policija je v soboto zvečer na pariškem letališču aretirala ustanovitelja Telegrama Pavla Durova, ki ga bremeni številnih kaznivih dejanj, predvsem zavračanja tega družbenega omrežja, da bi sodelovalo z oblastmi.

If France wants to target child predators, they should start with First Lady Brigitte Macron.

She started dating President Emmanuel Macron when she was 40 and he was just 15.

Instead, France is using Telegram owner Pavel Durov as a scapegoat.

This is clear double standards. pic.twitter.com/m6Da3GPpwJ

Obtožnica zoper Durova bo vložena v nedeljo in bo vključevala sostorilstvo v kaznivih dejanjih, domnevno storjenih s pomočjo Telegrama, kot so terorizem, trgovina z mamili, goljufije in pranje denarja, z zagroženo zaporno kaznijo do 20 let zapora.
