Google's YouTube said Tuesday that it would block Kremlin-backed media outlets RT and Sputnik from Europe following similar bans by Facebook and TikTok.
"It’ll take time for our systems to fully ramp up. Our teams continue to monitor the situation around the clock to take swift action," Google's video streaming service said in a statement.
YouTube's ban — following an announcement from the European Commission that it wanted to remove these Russian media outlets from the EU — would apply within the European Union and the U.K.
