The Vladivostok Times was an online English-language newspaper based in Vladivostok, Russia. It was founded in March 2006 and operated until 2011. The newspaper was primarily focused on an international, English-speaking audience, and on regional news from Russia's Far East.
Its content also included practical information for tourists, such as consulate contacts, tourist routes, and cultural events.
Coverage
The Times' primary focus was on regional issues relevant to both local and international audiences. Its news sections included topics on:
- Economics
- Politics
- Society
- Ecology
- Culture
- Travel Guide
News stories were often compiled from English translations of articles originally published by other Russian media outlets, such as PrimaMedia, RIA Novosti, and similar sources.
Closure
The Vladivostok Times ceased publication in 2011, with no official reason publicly cited for its closure. Following its closure, no successor publication emerged to fill the niche of an English-language newspaper covering the Russian Far East region.
