Aleksey Mukhin, General Director of the Center for Political Information, commented on the statement of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in a conversation with RT that the prohibition of Russian social networks Odnoklassniki and VKontakte in the country does not violate freedom of speech.


According to Mukhin, one should not wait for a stormy public reaction to such actions of the head of state.

“Of course, Petro Poroshenko is openly hypocritical when he claims that these prohibitions do not violate the freedom of speech,” he said.

According to the expert, after such speeches for Poroshenko "it becomes simply inconvenient."

“It is this example that teaches us how not to develop in the political, economic and social sense,” Mukhin said.

Earlier, Poroshenko said that he did not consider the prohibition in the country of Russian social networks Odnoklassniki and VKontakte as a violation of freedom of speech.
