During the Ukrainian conflict western media have given an almost completely negative picture of Russia. News which might distort this one-sidedness do not appear often.
A Norwegian journalist who stayed in Moscow some years in the 90s has now returned for a new work period. In a correspondent letter he has just reported a country in great change - for the better. Among the positive changes he mentions from Moscow are a great upgrading of the Sheremetyevo airport, aeroexpress trains in combination with metro, more easy taxi booking, free WiFi on the metro and in many restaurants, bike paths and lots of good restaurants. He promises to look into the much critized developments in Russian democracy later.
The correspondent letter seems unlikely to herald a more balanced western reporting about Russia.
