Is this what "protecting democracy" looks like?
Last week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a bill that would permit the Ukrainian government to censor news sites, control the flow of information to the Ukrainian people, and shut down news sites that aren't "registered as media," according to multiple reports. The law more resembles the totalitarian actions of the Soviet Union rather than a small country "protecting democracy," as many on the Left have claimed.
Additionally, the new law permits Ukraine's government to control all media. This includes online and print journalism, limiting the information on the nation's television networks, censoring the internet, social media networks, video platforms such as YouTube, and search engines such as Yahoo, Bing, or Google, various news outlets have claimed.
