^^RT News? Pro-Russia propaganda? Or should I get news from TV Rain, Russia's most prominent independent television channel?^^
It is Pro-Russia propaganda, as our media is Pro-USA propaganda. So what? I would not read only from RT News alone, as I wrote at the onset, but I definitely encourage you to include Russian sourced news along with our US sourced news. The RT news worries us so much that we have to go as far as censoring it which isn't very American. I'm happy to work out what information I can trust rather than relying on Washington to censor sources that don't suit them.
^^Oh wait, they suspended operations, didn't they?^^
RT is suspended some of their operations because we censored the channel. We censor any story that doesn't match our narrative, such as those published by Julian Assange. There is nothing new there. If you try, you can still listen to complete speeches by Sergei Lavrov or Maria Zakharova, but they are increasingly hard to come by - almost impossible to find in our media:
Recent speech by Lavrov:

^^[And if there is evidence, such as our bombing of the Nordstream [sic] II gas pipeline, the story is banned from discussion.]]
Evidence? What evidence? ^^
The evidence is very damning and the conventional view internationally. It is just being averted here in the US because it is so embarrassing.

It can be argued that in 2013 our sanctions against Belarussia were in violation of Article 3 of the Memorandum. Regarding the argument of Russia violating it in 2014, the context has to be understood. After the coup in Kiev in 2014 Russia expected Crimea to be rapidly controlled militarily by ourselves - in my view that is almost unquestionable, given our circling in the Black Sea and the importance of Crimea strategically, and the British history of wanting to control the region. It was one of our strong goals to have control of the territory in carrying out the Kiev coup in 2014, with Nancy Pelosi on audio record as deciding between the various presidents for Washington to install. Russia afterwards promptly secured Crimea from NATO entry, not before, but after the coup, knowing what would have been to come. Not a single weapon was fired in provide protection to Crimea. The public of Crimea will attest to you that they were completely happy to have Russia's protection. But the troops attached to the Russian Black Sea Fleet stationed in Crimea technically placed Russia in violation of the Budapest Memorandum.
