“We are aware of reports that Russia is examining the possibility of placing nuclear weapons in space,” NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte told German newspaper Welt am Sonntag in an interview published Saturday. Welt is a sister publication of POLITICO in the Axel Springer Group.
“Welt is a sister publication of Politico from Axel Springer” is factually true, but also a little misleading in telling the whole story. Axel Springer is most famous for “Bild”, the German “Sun” equivalent, and “Welt” is the pseudo-educated equivalent to Bild. Its supposed to peddle right-wing opinions while keeping the intellectual newspaper disguise.
