State Duma deputies supported the amendment on foreign media

The State Duma adopted in the second reading an amendment, according to which the foreign media, receiving funding from abroad, will be recognized in the Russian Federation as a “foreign agent”, reports RIA News.

The amendment will concern the draft law on extrajudicial blocking of websites of organizations prohibited in Russia.

The decision to assign the status of a foreign agent to the media will be taken by the Ministry of Justice. The ministry will also determine what the labeling of the media that has received such status will look like and whether a separate register of such foreign agents is needed.

For those publications that refuse to register in the new status, the provisions of the law on non-profit organizations - foreign agents will apply (they may become undesirable in the Russian Federation).

The adoption of the amendment was a forced decision, which "will not affect the freedom of speech in any way" and will not affect the Russian media, said Vice-Speaker Peter Tolstoy.

We are talking about the possibility for the executive power to take mirror measures in relation to those countries where freedom of action is being infringed, the words of Russian journalists,

added parliamentarian.

Recall that in early November, the US Department of Justice ordered the RT television channel to register as a foreign agent in the US before November 13. The channel fulfilled the November 10 requirement. Glavred “Russia Today” and RT Margarita Simonyan stated that this is a necessary measure, as the TV channel had to choose between registering as an agent and a criminal case. Moscow promised to prepare a response.

[210ox]

So the question is: why now, and not earlier? Say last year when this canoe began?

The State Duma adopted in the second reading the amendment, according to which foreign Media receiving funding from abroad will be recognized as a “foreign agent” in the Russian Federation,

It was necessary to extend this law to любые Media with funding from foreign countries supporting sanctions against Russia.

Max, Yes they are balabol, our government! They said that all the tools for recognizing foreign media as foreign agents already exist! But the law only today began to consider. And they should have started acting yesterday!

[Jedi]

Yes, but you know how they harness me better than me. I hope that riding will not let you down in folk wisdom.

As for candy wrappers, more experiences kakby being already there ---- not to lose. THREAT of loss ---- here is the pressure and the way of pressure. Now there are Amer laws on this topic. And about pencils and caps ----- it doesn’t come right away, but after sleeping they seem to catch on. And when they showed the intimacy in the safe house, they didn’t really understand, they somehow reacted sluggishly.

[Jedi]

Let's not get ahead of ourselves, wait for the adoption of the law and look at the reaction of the libermots.

G .. must fly from here! And not to the fan. Suitcase, train station .. wherever you want!

The trouble is that G has so many that there may not be enough pencils. Look at the rally on the murdered Nemtsov, how many G went in a united mass ...
We must not take a pencil, but send it to construction sites of the national economy under guard.

In the pose of the beaver they must be put.

[siberalt]

Where is the crowded foreign agents, so it is in our media. But for some reason their “amendment” will not affect.

[To be or not to be]

All in a pose .. !!
And enter the "Foreign Agent" badge on the VO website (joke)

[pvv113]

I support! (Seriously)

[Incvizitor]

It is also necessary for every geek that the State Department has to equate foreign agents with a salary, and OFFICIALLY conduct searches in the apartment and wiretap phones.

[pvv113]

And not only on salaries, but on grants, bonuses, grants, etc. - also

[Ankipelgygyrgyn]

I wonder how the liberal shobla will react to this.

[Primoos]

As usual, universal howl. I represent the cross-eyed face of Lenin Gozman. Very poor guy.

[Reserve officer]

Everything is logical. Financing from abroad will need to be worked out. So the phrase "foreign agent" is quite appropriate.

[Fedorov]

foreign media receiving funding from abroad

Workarounds for financing the sea ...
And why is it the State Duma, if the Echo of Moscow pours slop on the State, which is liberal .. G. .. finances? Would you even figure this out, or has there been a lot of such in the Duma since Yeltsin? Silenok is not enough? So there is Valuev, Karelin .. Very smart deputies.

[St Petrov]

And why is it the State Duma, if the Echo of Moscow pours slop on the State, which is liberal.

so that people appreciate the scale of foreign funding in almost all online publications.
To quote all Ge became a bad manners.

[rotmistr60]

It would be strange if the deputies did not support the amendment. And so everything is natural and happy.

[bald]

Well, finally - and then they have been waiting for this for a long time. Okay, better late than never. The only question is, what do they do with agents in such cases?

A lot of noise from nothing that will change, what will they praise Russia and condemn the States and the EU? Of course not.

[den3080]

Explain to me: What is bad about the status of a foreign agent in the Russian Federation?
what exactly will be "sect"? and then all some kind of vague phrases like ... "graciously deign to deign" (C "Twelve Chairs")

[evil partisan]

It seems to me that soon many "journalists" will change their profession . From the second oldest to the first ...

These scum (State Duma) supported the increase in excise taxes on gasoline and diesel by 10 +%. We are waiting for the increase in retail fuel prices, and then for everything else.

We have diesel on Sakhalin for 26,50 rubles. per liter! We get oil and go wild on prices and salaries! Why, they want to destroy us ?! Most of the people live on 30-40 tr. per month! Senior citizens more than 2 times less! But if you calculate the average z.p. with the level of z.p. officials together, then the overall level! And the prices are not European Russia! Even the salmon was gone, they knocked everything out! Bears who ate pink salmon fat that would lie in a den wander around housing trying to eat something in the garbage can! Only officials withers shine from exorbitant cares for the people! Everybody is getting fat and getting fat, effectively cutting the budget.

Well, "partners? For what they fought, they ran into that ?!"
