Russia has labelled Germany’s international broadcaster Deutsche Welle (DW) an “undesirable organisation”, essentially banning its operation in the country.
The designation appeared in a Ministry of Justice register on Tuesday after Vasily Piskarev, head of the Russian parliament’s Commission for the Investigation of Foreign Interference in Russia’s Internal Affairs, said DW was “at the forefront of hostile anti-Russian propaganda”.
