Of course, you know better in the Urals.
But what makes you think that you are not under propaganda?
It's amazing how low your level of critical thinking is if you believe the publications in the yellow press with reference to the words of a repatriate from Russian captivity, whom it is quite possible that the special services managed to turn over before his exchange.
Of course, I am also not completely free from the influence of propaganda. For example, I recently reported on four destroyed railway bridges across the Dnieper, and it looks like three of them turned out to be false, or even all four. I admit, this is the rare case when I am glad to be wrong.
