The director of Polish Radio For Foreigners, Andrzej Rybałt, explained to the Information Radio Agency that Roskomnadzor demanded that Polish Radio for Foreigners remove publications on Russia’s losses in the war with Ukraine.
– The authorities subordinate to Putin did not like the truth reported by the Russian Section of Polish Radio for Foreigners – said Rybałt. He noted that the Russian services asked for the removal of information on the number of casualties of the Russian army in Ukraine. Meanwhile, journalists of the Polish Radio for Foreigners provided the information after having verified it in many sources.

The director noted that the content created in Russian by Polish Radio for Foreigners on the Internet will still be available to recipients in Ukraine or Belarus.
