These Estonian companies support Kremlin propaganda

18.12.2020

Propastop has published several stories about how Estonian companies publish their advertisements in the Kremlin’s propaganda channels. Since such activities help finance the attempted division of Estonian society, our blog has called for an end to such advertising.

Responsible companies

Several companies have heeded the call and refused to advertise on propaganda channels. Although the list is not long, these companies have set a good example:

– Luminor
– Swedbank
– Telia

Unfortunately, there are many more companies and organizations that have not heeded the call to stop. Below you will find a list of those who were discovered by Propastop to have been advertising in propaganda channels in the autumn and who have not announced their termination of these advertisements. The blog has screenshots that show that the ads are still being published.

Fortunately, stopping advertising is easy; you can find a step-by-step guide here. If you stop, let us know at [email protected], so your name can be added to the list of responsible companies. We will publish a new list in the next few months.
