have watched programs of the “Rossiya Planeta” channel instead of the “RTR” channel.
Director general of the open joint-stock company (OJSC) “Teleradiocom” Khushvakhtullo Aliyev has told Asia-Plus that an agreement on broadcasting the “Rossiya Planeta” programs in

“At present, only residents of the big cities are able to pick up the “Rossiya Planeta” channel but in near future, this channel will be picked up on the whole
territory
of
Tajikistan
