The minister also mentioned that the Russian analogue of the world encyclopedia “Knowledge” is actively developing.
This statement came after the head of the Council under the President of the Russian Federation Valery Fadeev proposed to close Wikipedia on Runet. In response to this idea, Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary of the President of Russia, expressed the opinion that it is important to create an alternative source of verified information before Wikipedia is shut down.
Recall that Wikipedia is one of the largest open sources of information in the world and is available in many languages. The platform is actively used to quickly gain knowledge on various topics and is a tool for teaching and research.
