If someone describes Russia as a "Christian" country in a way they wouldn't describe other countries in Europe as "Christian", you should disregard everything they say about Russia. They don't know what they are talking about.
In reality, Russia is a very irreligious country. There are far more practicing Christians in the United States or even Spain, Poland, or Greece.
Inb4 someone says "What about the ban on gay propaganda?" It's a sensible policy, but being Christian entails faith in Christ and attending church. Simply opposing homosexuality is not the extent of actually practising the religion.

"For Telegram, accountability has always been a problem, which is why it was so popular even before the full-scale war with far-right extremists and terrorists from all over the world," she told AFP from her safe house outside the Ukrainian capital. Asked about its stance on disinformation, Telegram spokesperson Remi Vaughn told AFP: "As noted by our CEO, the sheer volume of information being shared on channels makes it extremely difficult to verify, so it's important that users double-check what they read." Now safely in France with his spouse and three of his children, Kliuchnikov scrolls through Telegram to learn about the devastation happening in his home country. But Telegram says people want to keep their chat history when they get a new phone, and they like having a data backup that will sync their chats across multiple devices. And that is why they let people choose whether they want their messages to be encrypted or not. When not turned on, though, chats are stored on Telegram's services, which are scattered throughout the world. But it has "disclosed 0 bytes of user data to third parties, including governments," Telegram states on its website. The fake Zelenskiy account reached 20,000 followers on Telegram before it was shut down, a remedial action that experts say is all too rare.
