Facebook’s parent company has blocked Russian state media outlets RT and Sputnik across the European Union, the company said Monday

Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has blocked Russian state media outlets RT and Sputnik across the EU. The change means that the media outlets are n’t visible in the EU on Facebook and Instagram.

Nick Clegg, the company’s newly-named president of global affairs, said:’given the exceptional nature of the current situation, we will be restricting access to RT and Sputnik across the EU at this time’.

We have received requests from a number of governments and the EU to take further steps in relation to Russian state controlled media. We will be restricting access to RT and Sputnik across the EU at this time.

Clegg said the company had limited access to’several accounts’ in Ukraine. The action announced Monday goes wider by limiting access to two major outlets across all of the EU.
