With aid from its allies in danger of drying up, some Ukrainians have been exploiting the spoils of war and giving it new meaning. Tours to cities affected by the ongoing conflict are being advertised for visitors, hyping human suffering and offering them a 'horrors of Russian occupation' experience.

RT talks to Igor Lopatenok, a documentary filmmaker, about his report on US and Ukrainian efforts to use celebrities to influence public opinion

RT contributor Tara Reade visited our studio to discuss Zelensky's statement that only $76BN of the $177BN in US aid has reached Ukraine. Where is the missing money?

RT's senior correspondent Murad Gazdiev recalls Russia's test deployment of the Oreshnik hypersonic ballistic missile, which struck a factory in Ukraine in November 2024. Moscow's use of Oreshnik was a consequence of Biden’s shameless authorization for Kiev to carry out strikes with long-range missiles deep into Russia.

Russia has been portrayed as a ‘savage and barbaric’ nation, from Ivan the Terrible to Vladimir Putin. But where does the image come from? The documentary explores the creation of the anti-Russian narrative in the West and how it spread to the media and popular culture. Researchers, historians and writers in the documentary claim Russia became a convenient target after the Great Schism. Throughout history, European rulers and philosophers constructed the image of an uncivilised nation, unfit for talks. For example, French philosophers Diderot, Voltaire and Rousseau argued if Russia could become a civilised country or if it was destined to remain barbarian. The mythical ferocious Russian bear and the tale of bad Russia still feature in the media and contribute to modern russophobia. The documentary traces the origins of the anti-Russian narrative in the West and explores who benefits from it.

Thanks to a new vaccine being developed in Russia, cancer could soon become an illness of the past. Tumors dissipate, and metastases disappear, according to preclinical studies. RT's Roman Kosarev visited the Gamaleya Institute, where the vaccine is being developed.

Kiev continues to snatch men off the streets amid harsh mobilization in the country. Meanwhile some of Ukraine's Western sponsors aren't shying away from admitting who's really reaping the profits. The UK Armed Forces Minister has openly said spending British taxpayers' pounds on Ukraine actually bolsters the Kingdom's own defense industry. We discussed all this with a former Ukrainian Security Service officer.

An official delegation of foreign journalists came to the DPR to inspect the region. Reporters from around the globe, including US, India, Lebanon, Slovenia and Cameroon were invited to review memorial sites in the city of Donetsk.

Prank with former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton After losing the 2016 election, Hillary Clinton did not leave big politics. For example, in the Ukrainian direction, it is now working on tightening sanctions against Russia. Therefore, she gladly responded to the offer of our "Petro Poroshenko" to talk about the fate of Ukraine and the United States. Despite the failed debate of the current owner of the White House, Hillary is confident that Trump will lose anyway, because she is "doing everything she can to re-elect Biden." Moreover, Clinton seems confident that the road to Biden's second term should be paved with the bodies of Ukrainian soldiers. "You have to move forward as best you can to try not only to hold the line, but also to go on the offensive. And then many in our country will do everything possible to re-elect President Biden," Hillary said. Speaking about Trump's ambitions, Clinton suddenly breaks down, calling him a "very bad guy" and "a very dangerous man who is bad for the United States and the rest of the world." Hillary also supports Ukraine's accession to NATO, of course, without naming any deadlines: "We are working very hard to convince the Germans and Americans to do this. I do not know what the final decision will be, but Rasmussen, Ermak and others are working very hard." In the final, Poroshenko offered Hillary his help and Ukraine's help to dig up new dirt on Trump. And Hillary... did not refuse to collude with the Ukrainian! And also, about Hillary's vice presidency, about Bill's wife and about Gaddafi's fate for the opponents of the United States, listen in our new prank!
