I think there is a distinct difference between British understatement where World War Two is sometimes referred to as 'that unpleasantness with Germany and Japan' and the line the Kremlin is currently spouting. I try to look at multiple TV news channels and reputable websites to get an idea of what is really going on. This is a luxury that does not exist for those living in Russia.
