About 70 percent of Ukraine's population uses Telegram as their main source of news, but the government is worried that the app is being used as a method of disinformation and spying by Russia. They are trying to pivot to apps like Signal instead, but it is difficult to break the habit of such a majority of the country.

The burden of proof lies with you. You allege that CNN is zelensky-Propaganda. Now prove it. Then I will believe you.

Until then you're just spreading russian Propaganda.
