Russia

In the 2016 presidential election Russia was accused of trying to influence the results by using social media. The government, in a attempt to minimize this, asked social media to limit these ads. This week the Justice Department announced that Russia once again was using social media in a attempt to influence voters. The for mentioned misinformation was record inflation, high food prices, special treatment for minorities, high crime rates in cities and in minority areas. The question now is will the government ask social media not to publish such information and second will they agree to the request.
