The sculpture near the Kremlin was installed to mark the broadcasters 20th anniversary

RT has unveiled a giant bullhorn installation in central Moscow to mark its 20th anniversary.

The sculpture, located in Manezhnaya Square near the Kremlin, features inscriptions of quotes from Western officials and rival media outlets recognizing the network's influence.

Among them is a 2014 remark by then-US Secretary of State John Kerry, who called RT a Russian "propaganda bullhorn." Another quote is from State Department official Jamie Rubin, who told reporters last September that "why so much of the world has not been as fully supportive of Ukraine as you would think they would be... is because of the broad scope and reach of RT."

Earlier this month, Russian President Vladimir Putin said RT's "secret strategic intercontinental weapon is the truth." He added that the state-funded broadcaster continues to reach a wide audience despite efforts by Western countries to take it off the air and ban its accounts online.

Launched as Russia Today in December 2005, RT runs websites and TV channels in English, Arabic, Spanish, French, German, Serbian, and Russian, serving audiences in over 100 countries.

According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, the network and its staff have faced more than 110 Western sanctions, along with asset freezes and other restrictions in recent years.
