When I'd originally pointed out that the Moscow Times was owned by "Dutchman", Derek Sauer, it was my intention to differentiate it as a Western controlled news organization as opposed to Tass and the original Pravda which are state controlled Russian news organizations. If you want to see what Russia says about their motives in Ukraine look at these sources. You might compare their take with that of Western MSM and Radio Free Europe.
https://tass.com/https://english.pravda.ru/ (Russian PravdaReport - English version, independent, Owned by Technomedia Inc., Vadim Gorshenin, founder CEO)
https://gazeta-pravda.ru/ (Russian Pravda - the original in Russian).
https://www.rt.com/ I was only able to access RT dot COM by using a VPN server in Finland. US IP addresses are being blocked by someone (probably on the US side). RT was deplatformed by YouTube and Western social media platforms over the last few days.
Below is a link to Radio Free Europe (Funded by the US Govt.)
https://www.rferl.org/This is Ukrayinska Pravda (Ukraine's Pravda, no relation to Russia's Pravda. Owned by Dragon Capital who's investment fund is managed by Soros Fund Management)
https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/Many governments are starting to restrict access to Russian sources. Foolishly censoring opposing view points hamstrings those of us in free countries from evaluating and sources and coming to our own educated conclusions. I've been reading sources from both sides since the early February. I've watched access become more and more constrained.
