Movie streaming company Netflix has announced that it has suspended its service in Russia and "paused" all future projects it had planned to undertake within the country.
Netflix said this over the weekend after the company refused to comply with Russia’s Vitirina TV law, which requires that audiovisual companies with more than 100,000 subscribers carry 20 free state channels, including NTV and Spa.
Netflix spokesperson said, “Given the circumstances on the ground, we have decided to suspend our service in Russia.”
According to a report, Netflix has approximately 1 million subscribers in Russia, making it one of the company's smaller markets.
As it stands, the fate of the four original productions, including an adaptation of Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina, underway in Russia is uncertain
