Netflix to Limit Russian Subscribers to Episodes of Emily in Paris as War in Ukraine Drags On.....

Los Gatos, CA - As the war in Ukraine continues with no foreseeable end in sight, American media company Netflix, Inc. is moving to restrict Russian subscribers to its video-on-demand streaming service to only episodes of Emily in Paris.

"Until Putin withdraws all Russian military personnel from Ukraine, we will only stream Emily in Paris," Netflix Executive Chairman Reed Hastings explained. "I won't lie and say that I slept well after making this decision. Innocent people are going to suffer. But they brought this on themselves."

Piotr Józef Hofmański, the current president of the International Criminal Court, has been vocal in his opposition to indiscriminate violence such as Emily in Paris as a means of ending the war. "Emily in Paris? And all three seasons? Two wrongs never make a right, and that's particularly true when it comes to war crimes."
