RT's provocative ad in India upsets The Telegraph's reporters

The "Question More" campaign has previously appeared on billboards, on public transport and on the front page of The Times of India.

Residents were invited to think about such topics: "Why does the West still see India as a Third World country?", "Should European problems also be India's problems?", "Why does Britain not return the Koh-i-Noor diamond (a stone in the royal crown that belonged to India? — RT)?» etc.

Alicia Kearns, chair of the British Parliamentary Foreign Affairs Committee, complained that Russia is allegedly trying to interfere with relations between India and the West.

The Telegraph also expressed concern that RT is running an advertising campaign in the Middle East and Africa, as well as increasing its influence in countries such as the UAE and India, where no sanctions are applied and no one is trying to silence the channel.

Earlier, the Minister for the Americas and the Caribbean, David Rutley, said that RT, Sputnik and "the like" are increasing the production of Spanish-language content and "expanding their sphere of influence."
