Ukraine has banned broadcasting of dozens of Russian channels since summer of 2014. The black list includes Channel One, Rossiyaa 24, Zvezda, REN-TV, Life News, RTR-Planeta, RT, as well as many entertainment, children's or sports channels. In Russia, these restrictions were repeatedly called unacceptable and regarded as an attack on freedom of the media.
