UN blasts Meta’s move to allow hate speech against Russians
The social media giant, however, insists the measure is needed to allow Ukrainians to express their opinions on the ongoing conflict
The United Nations has condemned the move by Meta to allow hateful remarks and calls for violence against certain Russians, with Stephane Dujarric, the spokesman for the UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, stating that the international body does not condone such calls coming from any side.
“We stand clearly against all hate speech, all calls for violence. That kind of language is just unacceptable from whichever quarter it comes from,” Dujarric said during a news briefing on Friday.
Meta, meanwhile, tried to downplay the impact of its controversial move, with the social media giant’s President for Global Affairs and former British Deputy PM Nick Clegg releasing a statement to clarify the decision. The main goal of the platform was to enable Ukrainians to vent their anger over the Russian invasion, he claimed, describing the decision as a “temporary” measure.
