MOSCOW, July 26. State Duma Deputy Alexander Khinshtein is trying to convince his wife to refuse to use the banned social network Instagram*, he announced this on Telegram.
«Unfortunately, my wife and I have different views on the issue of Instagram*. I honestly tried her more than once convince him to completely migrate to VK (social network VKontakte. — Ed.), but so far unsuccessfully,” he wrote.

According to the deputy, the use of Instagram* does not contradict the law, but does not cause him delight.

Khinshtein also assured subscribers that his wife does not sell advertising on this social network.
On Thursday, at a plenary session, the State Duma adopted in the first reading a bill banning advertising on information resources of undesirable organizations.
* The activities of Meta (social networks Facebook and Instagram) are prohibited in Russia as extremist.
