Launch

The Russian-language channel was launched on September 10, 2009 on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between Beijing and Moscow. CCTV Russian is broadcast through Chinasat 6B and EB-9A, which cover the Asian-Pacific Region, Middle East and Europe. The channel is aimed at about 300 million viewers in 12 Commonwealth of Independent States members, Eastern Europe and three Baltic Sea nations.[1] Since 2016 the CCTV Russian is present in the SPB TV online translation [2] in the Belt and Road TV (SPB TV) application.[3]

Content

The channel broadcasts entirely in Russian, with 16 programs in the form of news, feature stories, entertainment and educational programs. Its daily schedule consists of 6-hour blocks. News broadcasts will be updated more often, while all feature programs air four times daily.[1]
