Well you certainly will have fewer choices to post Russian propaganda in English. There is always Sputnik, RT, etc.

Here is an English version of grega's video

We are trying to avoid both Russian and Western propaganda here, going to alternative sources of information.
Hence - the selection of videos.


So thanks DKM, but you are not helping.

(However, I am going to ask Senior Mods again, for a confirmation - which will be posted here).

Please post exactly where it says English only can be used in a topic on about foreign country?

Speaking of Russian propaganda, it appears the Russian government is pushing the idea that they created and successfully tested the world's first coronavirus vaccine. This 2 months after also claiming to have found the world's first treatment. You may not have heard this living in the west, but they really did claim this today. Most of their propaganda is aimed internally, as in Soviet Times. This really isn't surprising to me at all, and they will claim Russophobia when we point out that nobody in the developed world believes them anymore.

I was wondering how they were going to deal with appearing inferior to the USA and UK inventing the vaccine and now I see this is their way of dealing with it. I can predict the future story: It was offered to Ukraine but Ukraine's government denied it to their people...Well anyways, congrats on saving the world again Putin!

They did. I saw that a week ago but forgot about it. Volunteers are testing it now, probably the second group.

And it was in Russian media. No western publication would dare say something like that.

OK, guys - got a reply from the higher-ups:

" I think the language rule applies to posts on the forum. The sources cited may be in foreign language, there is no way we could police all sources."

So, videos and links to articles written in foreign languages are OK. Just don't type any posts in other languages.

You must make a difficult decision. Russians are lying about the vaccine or stole it from you.

Yes. I read about it too.

Actually, why would anyone think that only US/UK or EU is capable to develop vaccine??
Russian scientists aren't dumb.
