Nobody will close Telegram,
Tkachenko told reporters on Saturday.

Will Telegram be held in Ukraine?

This statement comes after Tkachenko’s previous statements in which he stressed the need for an expert assessment to determine how the government should interact with Telegram. The Minister expressed his concern at the lack of communication with the representatives of the messenger, which prompted the Ministry of Culture to convene an expert group to analyze the functioning of Telegram in Ukraine. The group will include experts from various profiles, as well as representatives of Telegram channels.

In the near future, the expert group is expected to evaluate various aspects of Telegram’s presence in Ukraine, including its impact on communication, privacy, information dissemination and potential regulatory measures. The panel’s findings and recommendations appear to play a critical role in shaping the government’s approach to Telegram and ensuring that the public’s interests are protected.
