Russian (or Eurasian) agency Sputnik*

I´ve just put as one of the information references of this blog [on June 12th 2015] a Russian news agency Sputnik, which has news in Portuguese and others 28 languages.

However we shouldn´t observe that agency with naivety or purity of intention. In the presentation page Sputnik presents itself as media brand "alternative" (read: non-Western), and contributes to point "the way to a multipolar world that respects national interests, culture, history and traditions of each country". This language and the critical tone to the US and the West in their news calls are revealing the influence of the Eurasian doctrine in it´s activity.
