Russia to be disconnected from the Internet?

(Pravda): http://english.pravda.ru/society/stories/19-09-2014/128572-russia_internet-0/

   "According to various reports, the officials will make a number of
    decisions regulating the use of the Internet in Russia, providing for
    the ability to cut the Russian Internet, known as Runet, from the
    outside world, in case of emergency."
