Medvedev: Telegram CEO's escape from Russia and thinking he would never have to cooperate with security services abroad was a miscalculation

Odaily Odaily News: Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said it was a misjudgment for Telegram CEO Pavel Durov to flee Russia and think he would never have to cooperate with security services abroad. Medvedev, who often uses Telegram to criticize the West, said Durov wanted to be an "excellent 'world citizen' and live a good life without a motherland." "He miscalculated," Medvedev said. "To all our common enemies, he is a Russian - and therefore unpredictable and dangerous." The Russian Foreign Ministry said it had sent a note to Paris requesting a meeting with Durov, even though he already has French citizenship. (CNBC)
