Unexpected news: Roskomnadzor said it removes requirements to restrict access to Telegram. Since the moment the messenger was blocked in the Russian Federation, a little more than two years have passed.
We positively assess the readiness expressed by the founder of Telegram to counter terrorism and extremism.
By agreement with the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation, Roskomnadzor removes requirements to restrict access to the Telegram messenger.
We are ready to interact with all Internet companies operating in the country for the operational crossing of the spread of terrorist and extremist information, child pornography, and the promotion of suicide and drugs.

Official statement
And if you could use the messenger during the blocking period without any problems, then official links to channels, posts or people's accounts did not always open correctly (rather, never) – now everything works as expected, that is, the blocking was removed immediately.
Just a few days ago, a bill to unblock Telegram was submitted to the State Duma for consideration, and already this Thursday all restrictions were lifted. Hooray! You can subscribe to our WylsacomRed channel, if you have not done so already, the event is just right.
