MOSCOW—A Moscow court fined Alphabet Inc.’s Google 3 million roubles ($400,386) on Monday for not deleting content that is deemed illegal, part of a wider dispute between Russia and the U.S. tech giant.
Russia in October threatened to fine Google a percentage of its annual Russian turnover for repeatedly failing to delete banned content on its search engine and YouTube, in Moscow’s strongest move yet to rein in foreign tech firms.
