Russian TV Presenter Fined For Peace Posts Amid War

TV presenter fined for posts discrediting military.

A Moscow court has imposed a 50,000-ruble ($560) fine on a TV presenter and actress for her social media posts that were deemed to discredit the military. The presenter, known for hosting an 'almost naked' party, sparked public outrage in December with the event that encouraged guests to wear minimal clothing.

The court found the presenter guilty of violating a law penalizing remarks that discredit the military, based on two social media posts made in the early days of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. One post featured a black square with the words 'No to war,' while the other called for peace and negotiations to stop the killing of people.
