Russia Beyond the Headlines
About the Project
How much do you know about modern Russia? You may have heard stories about the Bolshoi Ballet, or former President Putin's remarks at the G8 summit or diplomatic tensions with Western countries. But does do these headlines really show Russia? How do Russians view these events, and how have their lives changed over the last few years? As one railway traveler pointed out, Russia is seven days wide and 14 days long. You may be surprised with what you discover...
Russia Beyond the Headlines is a supplement sponsored by the leading daily paper Rossiyskaya Gazeta (Russia Gazette). Each issue of RBTH will go behind the news, to give a view of events from a Russian perspective.
Russia Beyond the Headlines provides comments, analysis and information on trends in Russia. It will show you around the country's cities and landscapes, arts and culture. We hope to dispel stereotypes and help you to understand Russia as an historic, complex nation undergoing change in response to the challenges of modern times, while trying to preserve its traditions and identity.
We have been encouraged by letters from our readers, which have shown that there is a thirst for a deeper understanding of where Russia is going today. Your questions, comments and suggestions are always welcome at editor.uk@rg.ru
Russia Beyond the Headlines offers additional information about Russia through a complementary e-paper version on our website: http://rbth.ru.
