MOSCOW -- On Sunday, American Express announced it would suspend operations in Russia, as well as in Russian-allied Belarus.A few hours later, TikTok said Russian users would not be able to post new videos or see videos shared from elsewhere in the world.
The company blamed Moscow's new"fake news" law, which makes it illegal, among other things, to describe the fighting as an invasion.Facebook and Twitter have already been blocked in Russia, along with access to the websites of a number of major international media outlets.Russia has become increasingly isolated in the days since the invasion began, closing itself off to outside sources of information as sanctions bite deeply into its economy.
The ruble has plunged in value, and dozens of multinational companies ended or dramatically scaled back their work in the country.
