• Active verbs presenting Putin as decision-maker and commentator
• Direct quotes without distancing or critical framing
• Focus on Putin's explanations and achievements
• Neutral-to-positive selection of topics (economy, military, diplomacy)

Headlines are largely factual and quote Putin's statements without overt praise, but the outlet consistently amplifies his voice as authoritative and does not include critical or skeptical framing. Some topics (e.g., Ukraine, sanctions) involve Putin's own negative statements about others, yet the outlet's stance toward Putin remains favorable.

• Frequent direct quotation of Trump's statements without distancing verbs
• Headlines often present Trump's actions and decisions as newsworthy facts
• Occasional framing that highlights Trump's control or initiative (e.g., 'отменил', 'выразил готовность')
• Some headlines include Russian expert commentary explaining or justifying Trump's moves

The outlet generally reports Trump's statements and actions neutrally or with slight deference, quoting him directly and rarely using critical or distancing language. However, some headlines (e.g., #6, #12) could imply unpredictability or whimsy, and the entity's own aggressive rhetoric toward Iran/Netanyahu is reported without endorsement. Overall stance is mildly positive, not celebratory.

• Frequent use of distancing verbs like 'заявил', 'рассказал', 'пригрозил' when quoting Zelensky
• Headlines often frame Zelensky's actions as threats or boasts (e.g., 'пригрозил', 'захотел заставить')
• Counterbalancing by Russian officials (Lavrov, Putin, Peskov) who mock or dismiss Zelensky
• Occasional neutral or positive framing from foreign sources (e.g., Trump's praise) but not from the outlet itself

The outlet frequently quotes Zelensky directly, which can lend him a platform, but the surrounding framing and the inclusion of Russian officials' dismissive comments tilt the overall stance toward skepticism. The entity is a country (Ukraine) but the coverage focuses on its leader; the stance toward the country is inferred from treatment of its leadership.

• Frequent direct quoting of Trump and US officials without evaluative adjectives
• Use of distancing verbs like 'заявил', 'раскрыл', 'оценил' (stated, revealed, assessed) rather than hostile or celebratory language
• Occasional ironic or mocking framing of Trump's self-promotion (e.g., 'Все любят Дональда')
• Balanced selection: includes both US actions and Russian perspectives on US policy

The entity is the US as a country, but most headlines focus on Trump and US officials. The outlet reports their statements and actions factually, without systematic praise or condemnation. Some headlines (e.g., #13) carry mild irony about Trump's self-image, but this is not consistent hostility. The outlet also amplifies Russian official views (Lavrov, Russian fighters) which could imply a slight adversarial stance toward US policy, but the coverage itself remains largely neutral in tone toward the US as an entity.

• Frequent use of 'заявил' (stated) and 'рассказал' (told) presenting Putin's statements as factual and authoritative
• Focus on Putin's decisions and praise for domestic entities, framing him as a decisive leader
• Negative framing of Ukraine and the West, with Russia as a victim or responder
• Selective coverage highlighting Russian successes and Western concerns

The outlet consistently amplifies Putin's and other Russian officials' statements without distancing verbs, treating them as credible. While some headlines report on Western actions (e.g., Apple removing VK apps), the overall framing favors the Russian government. The entity is the country 'RU', and the coverage is largely state-aligned, though not overtly celebratory.

• Frequent use of neutral verbs like 'высказался', 'объявил', 'заявил', 'попросил' without evaluative framing
• Headlines often pair Zelensky with threats, demands, or requests (e.g., 'угрозы', 'попросил', 'понадеялся')
• Occasional negative framing via third-party warnings or critiques (e.g., 'риск лишиться ракет', 'разрушительный план')
• Quotes from Zelensky are presented without strong endorsement, often as claims or proposals

The outlet does not use overtly hostile language toward Zelensky, but the selection and framing (threats, requests, warnings) subtly undermines his authority. Some headlines are neutral factual reports. The entity's own statements are often about negotiations or military matters, but the outlet does not amplify them as credible; instead, it highlights his dependence on others (US, EU) and potential setbacks.

• Frequent use of authoritative verbs like 'заявил', 'рассказал', 'объяснил' without distancing
• Foregrounding Lukashenko's statements and interactions with Putin and Xi as newsworthy
• Occasional direct quotes in headlines that present his views as reasoned
• Neutral-to-positive framing of his meetings and remarks, with no critical evaluative vocabulary

Headlines 9, 15, and 21 include critical or adversarial content (Ukrainian responses, a verdict in LNR), but these are reported as events or quotes from others, not the outlet's own stance toward Lukashenko. The outlet itself does not use hostile or delegitimizing language; it amplifies his statements and positions him as a key interlocutor. However, some headlines (e.g., 21) could imply negative context, so stance is +1 rather than +2.

• Frequent use of 'рассказал', 'объяснил', 'раскрыл' presenting Lukashenko as an authoritative source
• Headlines foreground Lukashenko's statements and interactions with Putin and Xi without critical framing
• Selection highlights his warnings, explanations, and personal reflections rather than controversies
• Occasional neutral or negative items (e.g., LNR verdict, Zelensky retort) are outnumbered by favorable coverage

The entity is quoted extensively and treated as a credible voice, but some headlines (19, 20) introduce external criticism without the outlet's own evaluative language. The outlet's stance is positive but not celebratory; confidence is medium due to mixed items and primarily factual reporting.

• Uses assertive verbs like 'заявил', 'раскрыл', 'назвал', 'предупредил' that present Lavrov as a credible source
• Frames Lavrov's statements as evaluations and warnings, giving him platform to define issues
• Occasional humanizing or witty framing (e.g., 'заставил рассмеяться зал')
• No distancing or critical vocabulary toward Lavrov himself

The outlet reports Lavrov's critical remarks about other actors (Ukraine, Europe, NATO) without endorsing them, but the overall framing treats him as an authoritative voice. Stance is positive but not celebratory; no explicit praise or promotion.
