Google has suspended all advertising in Russia.
The decision comes after Russia’s internet watchdog, Roskomnadzor, accused YouTube, a division of Google, of running large advertising campaigns to misinform Russians about the country’s invasion of Ukraine.
Roskomnadzor had demanded that Google stop showing what it perceived to be false ads about the Ukraine war, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal on Thursday.
