LegalEntity:notes | LLC Media Group NewsFront (NewsFront) is a Crimea-based outlet presenting distorted interpretations of history and manipulated information, in line with Kremlin messaging. It regularly provides a platform for Russian government representatives and spreads lies and conspiracy theories about Ukraine. NewsFront targets European and global audiences and serves as a reference point for local disinformation outlets in Member States of the Union. NewsFront has ties to the Kremlin and the Russian secret services, namely the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation. LLC Media Group NewsFront was founded by, and is owned by, Konstantin Knyrik, a pro-Russian activist subject to Union restrictive measures. LLC Media Group NewsFront is therefore supporting materially actions which undermine the territorial integrity of Ukraine. It is also associated with Konstantin Knyrik. | ch_seco_sanctions | ch-seco-89109 | ||||
