This brings back so many memories. When I was in graduate school in the mid 90s (economics and European politics), it was difficult to get detailed, daily news in English on Eastern Europe. Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) was one of the best resources, with a daily email with an overview of news from the region.

I would print this out every single day on an old dot matrix printer so I could then take it to the library where I would read it with everything else.

Can find the archives (in a not very user friendly format) here: https://www.rferl.org/Newsline

btw, second best source of daily news in English in Eastern Europe was shortwave.
