As a reminder, most Ukrainians are against blocking Telegram in our country. However, they support some restrictions and control. Only 26% believe that this messenger should not be controlled at all.

As previously reported, the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate, Kyrylo Budanov, said that he did not support the closure of Telegram but called the resource a threat to Ukraine's national security. Nevertheless, the messenger has become the main source of information for our society, the head of the Defense Intelligence admitted.
