No they didn't, they stopped actively promoting them. Not the same thing.
Are you online demanding VK and other Russian social media give equal reach to MSNBC and CNN? If you're not, you should.

Regarding VK and Russian social media, I'm a US-American, so i'm mostly concerned with what US companies do -- because they're much more destructive, and I can do a lot more about them.
