The Kremlin said Tuesday that France had levelled “very serious” charges against Telegram founder Pavel Durov and warned Paris against trying to intimidate him, after the tech tycoon was arrested at a Paris airport.

“The charges are indeed very serious, they require no less serious evidence. Otherwise this would be a direct attempt to restrict freedom of communication, and, I might even say, directly intimidate the head of a large company,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
