It’s a Russian product even if their Legal entity is now in Dubai.
Telegram is Pavel Durov’s product, who moved from Russia after Putin’s friends took over VK and fired him from the CEO position. Whoever is loyal to the Russian regime, it’s definitely not him.
However people may change...
Not true.
Just look at Wikipedia founders and CEO are Russian.
Telegram is based in UK and UAE. One of the founder is now a French citizen. Telegram has been blocked in Russia in the past : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_Telegram_in_Russia
"has been blocked in Russia in the past" - Russia doesn't just unblock you for no reason after blocking.
