Current Time TV (Шаблон:Lang-ru) is a Russian-language television channel with editorial office in Prague, created by the US organisations Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and Voice of America. The channel – via RFE/RL – is funded through grants from the US Congress through the US Agency for Global Media.[1] The media sees its task in "promoting democratic values and institutions". RFE/RL launched Current Time, in October 2014.[2] The official round-the-clock broadcasting began on February 7, 2017.[3][4][5]
Current Time was instituted as an alternative to Kremlin-controlled media and Russian propaganda.[6][7] Despite the fact that Current Time was intended to counterbalance Russian official news coverage, Kenan Aliyev,[8] executive editor of Current Time, told Reuters that C.T. was not counterpropaganda at all.[9]
In December 2017 Russia's Ministry of Justice added the outlet to the so-called list of "foreign agent". It, alongside 8 other American public broadcasters, was the first mass media outlet to be included to the so-called list of "foreign agents".[10]
Current Time is available on cable, satellite and digital platforms in Russia, the Baltics, Belarus, Ukraine, the Caucasus and central Asia.[9] It had over 1,500,000 followers on Facebook and 1,300,000 subscribers on YouTube in August 2020.[5]
On 27 February 2022, Roskomnadzor blocked the website of the channel for its coverage of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[11] On January 5, 2024, a Belarusian court declared the Internet pages of “Current Time” extremist.[12]
