The sculpture near the Kremlin was installed to mark the broadcaster\u2019s 20th anniversary<\/p>\n
RT has unveiled a giant bullhorn in central Moscow to mark its 20th anniversary.
\nThe sculpture, located in Manezhnaya Square near the Kremlin, features quotes from Western officials and rival media outlets recognizing the network\u2019s influence.
\nAmong them is a 2014 remark by then\u2013US Secretary of State John Kerry, who called RT a Russian \u201cpropaganda bullhorn.\u201d Another quote is from State Department official Jamie Rubin, who told reporters last September that \u201cwhy so much of the world has not been as fully supportive of Ukraine as you would think they would be\u2026 is because of the broad scope and reach of RT.\u201d
\nEarlier this month, Russian President Vladimir Putin said RT\u2019s \u201csecret strategic intercontinental weapon is the truth.\u201d He added that the state-funded broadcaster continues to reach a wide audience despite the efforts of Western countries to take it off the air and ban its accounts online.
\nLaunched as Russia Today in December 2005, RT runs websites and TV channels in English, Arabic, Spanish, French, German, Serbian, and Russian, serving audiences in over 100 countries.
\nAccording to Russia\u2019s Foreign Ministry, the network and its staff have been hit with more than 110 Western sanctions, along with asset freezes and other restrictions in recent years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
