Ukraine's government website blocked in Russia because of truth about COVID-19 in CADLO - Reznikov

The website of the Ministry for the Reintegration of the Temporarily Occupied Territories of Ukraine was blocked in Russia at the instance of Roskomnadzor and the Russian Prosecutor General's Office. Vice Prime Minister for Reintegration of the Temporarily Occupied Territories of Ukraine Oleksii Reznikov told this at the Ukraine 30. Coronavirus: Challenges and Responses All-Ukrainian Forum, - RBC-Ukraine reports.

According to him, publication by the Ministry of the truth about the spread of coronavirus in the occupied regions of Donbas was the reason for the ban.

"It is because of the spread of the truth about covid in CADLO that the Ministry of Reintegration's website was officially blocked in Russia at the instance of Roskomnadzor and the General Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation. This is the first precedent when the official government website of another country is blocked in Russia for spreading the truth", - Reznikov said. However, he stated that "this plan" would be faulted anyway.

As chief sanitary doctor of Ukraine Viktor Liashko previously reported, residents of the occupied Donbas can also be treated for coronavirus in the controlled territory free of charge. They will receive such treatment, if the test is confirmed at the checkpoint or at the place of arrival. At the same time, it is possible not to do the test on the spot, but to go to the destination indicated in the application, and do the test already there.
