Telegram on Sunday questioned France for arresting its CEO Pavel Durov, who was detained at a Paris airport over the weekend.
“Telegram abides by EU laws, including the Digital Services Act — its moderation is within industry standards and constantly improving,” the app said Monday on X. It added that Durov, who frequently travels across Europe, has “nothing to hide.”
“It is absurd to claim that a platform or its owner are responsible for abuse of that platform,” the Dubai-based platform said.
