Telecommunications, Communications

The communications and telecommunications industry is one of the most dynamic and highly regulated in Russia. Constant changes to Federal Laws 126, 149, and 152, licensing requirements, the introduction of new networks, digital ecosystems, and growing sanctions risks require not just knowledge of the law, but also an understanding of the operator’s inner workings and the actual mechanisms of interaction with government agencies.
