Russia said on Tuesday it is seeking to fine Google more than $200 million after the U.S. tech giant repeatedly failed to remove content deemed illegal by Moscow.
Communications regulator Roskomnadzor said Google had failed to pay 32.5 million roubles ($458,100) in penalties levied so far this year and that it would now seek a fine of 5 to 20 percent of Google’s Russian turnover, which could reach as much as $240 million.
