Since my
last post, the already massive influx of new users to Telegram has only accelerated. We may be witnessing the largest digital migration in human history.
Following this global phenomenon, two presidents started their Telegram channels:
The President of Brazil –
@jairbolsonarobrasil The President of Turkey –
@RTErdoganThey join a list of other heads of state already present on the platform:
The President of Mexico –
@PresidenteAMLOThe President of France –
@emmanuelmacronThe Prime Minister of Singapore –
@leehsienloong The President of Ukraine –
@V_Zelenskiy_officialThe President of Uzbekistan –
@shmirziyoyevThe President of Taiwan –
@iingtw The Prime Minister of Ethiopia –

@bnetanyahu (Note that such verified accounts typically show a blue check mark in your chat list and search results.)
We are honored that political leaders, as well as numerous public
organizations, rely on Telegram to combat misinformation and spread awareness about important issues in their societies.
Unlike other networks, Telegram doesn’t use nontransparent algorithms to decide whether a subscriber will see content they subscribed to or not. As a result, Telegram channels are the only direct way for opinion leaders to reliably connect with their audiences.
By removing the manipulative algorithms that have become synonymous with 2010s technology platforms, Telegram channels restore transparency and integrity to public “one-to-many” communication.
