Senator Alexei Pushkov believes that the Russian Federation needs to become more independent in terms of information. Alexei Pushkov, Chairman of the Interim Commission of the Federation Council on Information Policy, said at a round table in the Federation Council that Russia could be disconnected from the global Internet. This is reported by RIA Novosti. “Of course, we must be prepared for the worsening of the situation in fact, because disconnecting from the global Internet is generally possible. Yes, it is possible, I would not rule out such a scenario,” the senator said. Pushkov explained that Russia could benefit from such a development, as it would allow it to become more independent in terms of information.
