Zharov also said in the interview that Roskomnadzor has no complaints against users of the blocked Telegram, citizens can communicate through this messenger.
Russia's Roskomnadzor watchdog began blocking Telegram, a messaging service popular in Russian Federation, on Monday after it refused to comply with a court order to grant state security services access to its users' encrypted messages.
Any moves by Google or Amazon to halt Telegram's access to their platforms or to remove its app from their stores would mean "they are witting collaborators in a censorship campaign, not victims of it", Snowden said.
Edward Snowden came out in support of Durov, saying that despite his criticism of Telegram's security model in the past, the CEO's response to the Russian government's "totalitarian demand for backdoor access to private communications - refusal and resistance - is the only moral response, and shows real leadership". The company has, for example, banned more than 270 accounts linked to the Internet Research Agency, the Russian troll factory with ties to the Kremlin. Meanwhile, they are already far behind schedule. "If the company fails to do anything or at least something of these, or the Russian government receives no notification of intentions to do these, we will obviously raise the issue of blocking", Roskomnadzor head Alexander Zharov told the newspaper.

'Cocaine babe' Melina Roberge jailed for trafficking drugs on cruise ship
Roberge, Lagacé and André Tamine, a 65-year-old Montreal man, were all arrested upon arriving in Australia on August 28, 2016. In sentencing Roberge, Judge Traill said the lure of Instagram likes had a huge impact on the 24-year-old's decision making.
According to earlier reports, the latest of these meetings took place in February 2018. The popular messenger Telegram was blocked in Russian Federation after refusing to provide Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) with keys to decrypt its messages.
Russia's media regulator Roskomnadzor has blocked more than 18 million Internet Protocol (IP) addresses in an effort to squeeze Telegram out of Russian Federation, the Bell news website reported late Tuesday.
Roskomnadzor has repeatedly warned Facebook and other social networks that they could be banned in Russian Federation this year if they do not comply with the data-storage law.
