I personally would have him leave if at all possible. A lot of people in Ukraine are regretting not abandoning everything right now. If that's too extreme, anecdotally the Russian govt seems pretty dependent on Telegram. They've backed down from banning it in the past, albeit in less serious situations. As long as you neither of you ever send anything political on telegram or join any political channels that might be your safest communication option. On this specific post: I don't speak Russian. Someone on Twitter who claimed to speak Russian said the top of the document makes it clear they're only requiring official government websites to switch to fully domestic hosts. (Don't think this helps much, because who knows what will change in a week) [I'm not at all an expert]
