Russia had the highest number of pay TV subscribers in Eastern Europe, at nearly 41.9 million in 2021. Economic sanctions on the country over its invasion of Ukraine were expected to contribute to a decline in subscribers, whose amount was forecast at under 36.9 million in 2027. In total over that period, the number of pay TV users in Eastern Europe was projected to fall by eight million.
