Summary
Xenia Fedorova, once head of RT France, now dominates French media as a Kremlin-backed commentator on CNews and Europe 1, broadcasting Kremlin narratives on Ukraine and security despite RT’s EU ban. Her rise within Vincent Bolloré’s media empire—where she also published her memoir—has drawn sharp criticism, including a formal complaint from Macron ally Valérie Hayer. Once close to Russian propaganda chief Margarita Simonyan, Fedorova’s influence persists even after RT France’s 2023 shutdown, exploiting a loophole that lets Kremlin messaging infiltrate mainstream French discourse without scrutiny.
