RBTH collects, selects and publishes in foreign languages topical reports about Russian politics, public life, culture, business, science, history and other areas that are usually not covered by foreign media for their domestic audiences.
Structure
Russia Beyond The Headlines is a news and information resource sponsored by the Rossiyskaya Gazeta publishing house.
Rossiyskaya Gazeta is a general-interest daily newspaper, offering its readers a diverse and quality content and receiving income from commercial advertising and sales of the paper.
RBTH has editorial and output teams, separate from Rossiyskaya Gazeta, that prepare material for publication in print supplements to foreign media outlets and on its own websites in different languages.
The RBTH editorial team consists of the Central Desk, which produces material shared across countries and regions, and of regional clusters, where this material is adapted to specific countries, adding themes relevant for a particular region. In addition, each regional division of RBTH publishes material on bilateral relations with Russia.
Criticism
Russia Beyond the Headlines has been criticised for being a para-governmental Russian propaganda organisation.
