What is the relevance to this discussion? Are you actually asserting that the facts raised there are false, or are you simply trying to get people to dismiss true statements?

Both sources have such low credibility that they should be ignored. That doesn't mean they're wrong, but I don't think they lend any weight to your argument.

There's a good chance that anything on RT is either false or presented in a very misleading way - they are a propaganda outfit for the Kremlin after all.

See eg. http://www.economist.com/blogs/graphicdetail/2016/09/daily-c... or http://www.spiegel.de/international/business/putin-fights-wa...

tl;dr; you want people to think the facts presented are false but you have no actual argument against them.

Is wikipedia also Russian propaganda?

How is Wikipedia protected from state actors biasing the content?
