You're sharing a Russia Today article?
It's a brand new account with negative karma and two comments, both pro-Russian in context.

Either it's somebody's sock puppet account or someone new who doesn't understand that HN really is different from Reddit and a higher level of intellectual discourse works much better here.

RT used to be half-way decent. Some might argue that they've turned up the agitprop dial a bit recently.
RT has always been a Russia propaganda arm. They were never decent. It's interesting to read every once in a while, but only to see Kremlin talking points.
RT was specifically created by the Russian government to influence foreigners.
