According to the Atlantic Council, it has been linked to the Strategic Culture Foundation (SCF), a Russian  think tank and online magazine that is regarded as an arm of Russian state interests by critics. The website has been described as in the same online ecosystem as pro-Russian network of online media outlets Russia Insider, The Duran, Geopolitica.ru, MintPress News, the Centre for Research on Globalization, the New Eastern Outlook magazine, online news sites NewsFront, SouthFront, Moscow-based think tank Katehon, the Center for Syncretic Studies, 4pt.su, Eurasianist Archive, Fort Russ, and the Voltaire Network. Promotion of conspiracy theories
