This information was shared by the head of the Federal Enforcement Agency, Dmitry Aristov. According to him, Google owes Russia about 30 billion rubles. He also revealed that his department has already collected a significant portion of that amount.
At the same time, enforcement officers’ influence on Google is still limited at this time. The company is in bankruptcy. Aristov also noted that the debts of the same Telegram were successfully paid off.
Recall that since the beginning of 2021, the largest Internet services, including Google, Telegram and TikTok, have been fined for refusing to remove content banned in Russia.
