Even BBC Russian has to change their articles as some 'more enthusiastic' comrades let their Nationalist pride spill on to the site. Talk about Propaganda, everybody in Russia thinks as one.

It isnt the language itself. Most likely it's option 2 or 3. Remember that Putin supports lukashenka. Therefore most negative comments about either Belarus or Russia will end up being slimmed down or altered. There's also a possibility that it is not the translator's themselves whom are responsible for this (am pretty sure the director / editor wouldnt allow mangling of content) but more likely that Euronews signed a contract stating they should censor the Russian version. Pretty much like the recent row about Google's filtering policies for China. I agree with Edmundo. It isnt the language itself. Most likely it’s option 2 or 3.

What I mean is, if this way on "translate" is only happening in the Russian version (I use to watch Euronews in English, Spanish and Portuguese and all of those versions use almost the same speech) probably is due to one of the following reasons (or all of them): 1.They are very bad journalists (I wonder how the selection process for Euronews is) 2.They receive instructions from Russia 3.They just tell what is good for Russia and what the Russians want to listen as citizens of an "empire" and, sorry, no way with my taxes.

Of course, they need native speakers. So in Spanish department it's Spaniards, in Portugese - journalists from Portugal, etc... The problem is not that they are Russians. The problem is how they "translate" things into Russian, when it comes to Belarus-related news items. But what’s the problem? Of course, they need native speakers.
