According to Meta, the enforcement process for the ban will roll out over the following days, indicating a serious commitment to curbing foreign influence on social media.
This enforcement action by Meta follows the recent U.S. money-laundering charges against RT employees, highlighting ongoing concerns about Russian efforts to manipulate US political processes.
