Pro-Russian columnist Xenia Fedorova, former boss of the Russian state channel RT in France and accused of being the voice of the Kremlin in French media, was given a ministerial expulsion order on Wednesday July 29, said the Interior Ministry, confirming information from Libération.
According to the daily, “his behavior undermines the fundamental interests of the State”, and his presence on French territory “for this reason constitutes a particularly serious and current threat to public order”, it is written in this ministerial decree. “By deploying her narratives”, the columnist for several radio and television channels in the fold of Vincent Bolloré “acts as a relay of disinformation campaigns piloted by the Russian authorities” with the aim of “destabilizing public order” in France, it is added.
