According to a recent report by the Wall Street Journal, Russian officials "reacted angrily" to the arrest of Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov as he stepped off a private plane at Paris' Le Bourget Airport on Saturday. The Russian Embassy in France issued a statement early Sunday morning, saying that the French authorities refused to participate in their attempts to contact Durov. "After media reports of PV Durov's detention, we immediately asked the French authorities to clarify the reasons and asked them to ensure the protection of his rights and provide consular access. As of today, the French side has so far avoided contact on this issue. We are in contact with PV Durov's lawyers."
