Roskomnadzor blocked website Forbes Ukraine

The Russian governmental controller Roskomnadzor added the website Forbes Ukraine to the register of banned information. The resolution by that effect was taken by the Zavodskoy district court of Grozny city on December 22, 2015, RBK reports.

The reason for blocking is the publication of the poem "Do Russians want war...", which the court judged to be "extremist". The poem was actually added in comments to the article "Divorce in Crimean style" on March  9, 2014, and still is not deleted at this page.

The news website Forbes Ukraine currently continues publishing news, in spite of the notice as of July 30 that it will cease to operate "due to technical works”.
