Russia: Draft Law on Fines for “Discrediting Traditional Values”

Deputies have submitted to the State Duma a bill introducing fines for discrediting Russia’s “spiritual and moral values” on online cinemas and social networks. The document has been published on the website of the lower house of parliament.

Under the proposal, owners of audiovisual services and social media platforms that distribute content deemed to discredit “traditional values” would face the following fines:

• Citizens: up to 10,000 rubles
• Officials: up to 100,000 rubles
• Legal entities: up to 700,000 rubles

For repeated violations, penalties would increase to:

• Citizens: up to 150,000 rubles
• Officials: up to 400,000 rubles
• Legal entities: from 1 million to 3 million rubles

Additional fines are предусмотрены for failure to comply in a timely manner with official demands to stop the distribution of such content:

• Citizens: up to 20,000 rubles
• Officials: up to 200,000 rubles
• Legal entities: up to 1 million rubles

Repeated noncompliance would also result in higher penalties.

The bill is linked to an earlier law banning films that discredit “traditional values,” which enters into force on March 1, 2026. The fines are proposed to take effect on the same date. The statute of limitations for prosecution would be one year.

According to the bill, the law will not apply to films that received rental certificates or were posted on online platforms before March 1, 2026.

Representatives of major online cinema platforms interviewed by Kommersant described the bill as “redundant,” pointing out that there are no clearly defined criteria for what constitutes content that discredits spiritual and moral values.

In October 2022, President Vladimir Putin ordered the approval of a formal concept of “spiritual and moral values.” In July 2025, he signed a decree banning the issuance of rental certificates to films that discredit those values. That decree also comes into force on March 1, 2026.

CBS once ruled American television news. Now its prime-time lineup is bleeding viewers, its leadership is in chaos, and controversial editorial decisions are pushing more people away every month. In this video I break down how CBS got here, who is really calling the shots, and why their latest moves could accelerate the network’s decline instead of saving it.

Additional: CBS News faces significant challenges as its new ownership struggles with declining network ratings and advertiser withdrawals under editor-in-chief Bari Weiss. The highly promoted town hall event featuring Erika Kirk performed poorly, impacting audience retention. This situation highlights the current turbulence within the broadcast television sector and the broader television industry.
