Russia's Supreme Court urges to distinguish extremism from criticism

Criticism of political and religious associations, as well as public figures, should not in itself be regarded as incitement to hatred or enmity. This was reported on December 23 in the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.

"Criticism of political organizations, ideological and religious associations, political or public figures in connection with the exercise of their powers or other actions determined by their status, as well as political, ideological or religious beliefs, national or religious customs in itself should not be considered as an action aimed at inciting hatred or enmity," — the Supreme Court has indicated.
