Summary/Abstract: Ukraine’s decision to ban Russian media, TV and films is based on the fact that it is at war with Russia. However, when removed from this context, Ukraine’s policies appear to be heavy-handed censorship. This is the main problem western commentators reveal when lambasting Ukraine, which is trying to protect itself against an aggressor.
