The Kremlin has slammed as "unacceptable" Meta's decision to ban Russian state media outlets from its apps, after the U.S. social media giant accused them of "foreign interference activity."

"With this action Meta discredits itself. Such actions against Russian media are unacceptable," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.

Meta has decided to ban RT and other Russian state media outlets from its platforms, including Facebook and Instagram. This decision follows the company's ongoing efforts to prevent foreign interference activities. In a statement to Engadget, Meta said it had carefully considered the matter and opted to expand its enforcement against Russian state media globally.
