    Because that website is named “Moscow times” I checked.

    It’s based in the Netherlands and is quite critical of Putin and company. It’s not Russian state propaganda, if that’s what you mean.

          Yes, it’s literally the first sentence I quoted off the link…

              Not many people know this, so I wanted to spread the word:

                Many people get this confused, but it’s important to note that Moscow Times is run from outside of Russia, and is not, in fact, controlled or meaningfully influenced by the Russian government.
