MOSCOW, April 1 (RIA Novosti) - Russian international news agency Rossiya Segodnya launched on Tuesday the Spanish-language news wire, Servicio de Noticias Novosti, for its subscribers in Latin America and Spain.
The news wire, covering the most important events in Russia and the world with the focus on the targeted audience, is part of the news agency's large-scale products in various languages.
"The focus will be made on increasing the share of exclusive information and formation of agenda which is different from the one in mass media. Mainstream media journalists, especially in the United States and West Europe, prefer to ignore those problems in their countries which they usually criticize in other countries, including in Russia. Most mass media share the same stance on many world issues, including the situation around Ukraine and Crimea, Syria, Iran and the situation in the United States. They are the same. We are different," said the editor-in-chief of the news agency, Margarita Simonyan.
Rossiya Segodnya will prioritize the formation of its own news agenda of the major world events, exclusivity and deep assessment of issues, said the editor-in-chief of the news agency, Simonyan.
"The agency will be informing not only and predominantly about Russia but mostly about global events with a Russian attitude to it. Russia is a global player and its voice must always be heard. We will help everyone who is interested in the stance and attitudes of Moscow learn about them first-hand - and not just in the form of interpretation by our foreign colleagues, as is often the case," she said.
