MOSCOW, Mar 29 (PRIME) -- Russia will not impose the same restrictions on the local Internet as China, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said on Friday.
“Of course, we won’t have such regulation as in China. I’ll say even more, this regulation in China does not often bring the results it was supposed to achieve. Moreover, we don’t want it, there is no firewall,” Medvedev said during a live broadcast on social network VKontakte.
The State Duma, the country’s lower house, approved in February in the first out of three mandatory readings a bill on protection of the Runet in case of a threat from abroad. An explanatory note read that the document had been drafted because of the aggressive mood of the U.S. National Cyber Strategy adopted in 2018.
