EU sanctions former RT France chief Xenia Fedorova over pro-Russian propaganda
The Council of the European Union confirmed the Russian commentator had been added to its sanctions list on Thursday. In France, she had already faced an expulsion order and an asset freeze, both of which she challenged.
The European Union has added former RT France chief Xenia Fedorova to its sanctions list, accusing her of spreading Kremlin propaganda in French media as part of Russia's broader hybrid campaign against Europe. As president and director of information at RT France, Fedorova helped disseminate the Russian state broadcaster's editorial line, which included pro-Moscow messaging about the war in Ukraine.
The sanctions freeze her assets in the EU and prohibit EU citizens and companies from providing her with funds or other economic resources.
