MACRON’S REVENGE? Telegram CEO Pavel Durov Declined French President’s Plea to Move Company HQ to Paris – Durov Rejected the Idea and Then Became a Political Prisoner
French President Emmanuel Macron asked Telegram CEO Pavel Durov to move the company headquarters to Paris back in 2018, an offer he refused.
Fast forward six years and Durov was arrested in France at the behest of the Macron regime.
The revelations were first revealed in a bombshell report from The Wall Street Journal:
Six years before Pavel Durov landed in a French holding cell, the antiestablishment founder of the messaging app Telegram was in a very different position in France: having lunch with President Emmanuel Macron.
At the lunch in 2018, which hasn’t been previously reported, Macron invited the Russian-born Durov to move Telegram to Paris, people familiar with the discussions said.
