The Bell in English is a weekly newsletter for those who want to deepen their understanding of Russia and its role in global affairs. We are fiercely independent and dedicated to distinguishing truth from propaganda, reality from hype and genuine change from political spin.
With over 20 years of reporting experience, our small team of Moscow-based journalists produce in-depth writing and follow trends neglected by many international media outlets. The Bell is a resource for anyone interested in compelling human stories and an honest and fair analysis of Russia’s most important business and political events.
The Bell was founded in 2017 by journalists Elizaveta Osetinskaya, Irina Malkova and Peter Mironenko as a news outlet independent from the Russian authorities, after its founders have been sacked as top editors at the largest Russian news website RBC because of pressure from the Kremlin.
From May 1, 2025, The Bell in English will no longer be free.
