Global Eyes

You may not be interested in Russia, but Russia is interested in you.

From Claire—Kommersant is a leading Russian business broadsheet, owned by steel tycoon Alisher Usmanov, who also runs a Gazprom subsidiary. It claims to be “one of the most authoritative and influential publications for Russia’s decision makers.”

Today, on the front page of Kommersant, there’s a roundup of translated foreign media reports about Russia’s talks with the United States and NATO, with highlights from The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Newsweek, the Financial Times, and the rest of the West’s mainstream organs.

Russia’s interest in Western public opinion is completely unrequited. Not one of these newspapers has a reciprocal survey of the Russian media.

For that, you need the Cosmopolitan Globalist.
