“A legitimate decision was made, which declared Meduza a foreign agent,” he said.

To the clarifying question of whether the Kremlin has an understanding of why the media recognized this as a foreign agent, Peskov replied that in this case he was proposing "to be guided by the decisions made."

Earlier, the Ministry of Justice entered the Internet edition "Meduza" into the register of foreign mass media performing the functions of a foreign agent.

In September 2018, RT published an article about foreign funding for Meduza.

Media recognized as a foreign agent by the decision of the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation dated 04/23/2021.
