The launch of the free-to-air signal in Nicaragua complements its availability through cable television providers, a delivery method through which RT en Espanol was already accessible to part of the national audience.

  RT en Espanol was established in 2005 in Moscow, Russia, while its Spanish-language service began broadcasting in December 2009.

  The channel, which has a significant presence in Latin America and other continents, provides news coverage on politics, economy, culture, and global social events, positioning itself as an alternative to major hegemonic media outlets.
