The one on the right will be the modified one approved for publication in Russia.
Available on the world's internet allegedly, for those with a "connection" of course.
Bloomburg's offering appears to have "approved" Asian/Europe editions.

Putin is still overwhelmingly popular in Russia. The country has been ruled for centuries by "strongmen", it's just a cultural predilection.
^^Yeh, they had been few not so strong, needing to ask an advice from D.C.The country has been ruled for centuries by "strongmen"
People see what are the results during his "strongmanship", despite all the kind help from the oversea "friends"...Putin is still overwhelmingly popular in Russia.
^I approach Klondyke's posts like cryptic puzzles.
A way to pass time when the crossword is done.
Cryptic puzzles have a reason , make sense . . . Klondyke possesses neither of these
He's just a pro-Russian, anti-West character that loves to troll Teakdoor, for whatever reason.
It would be a little boring without him, or any of the other "eccentric" types here, IMO.
Vlad's been a bit quiet. Is he hiding out in one of his dachas?
He's probably down on the kolchoz doing day labor as a true communist.
Or he is saying for himself: "Manitou does not hear the dogs' barking..."
(As he remember the Indian chief's saying from the Karl May's books of Old Shatterhand and Vinnetou when reading during his mission in East Germany)
I thought 'arry might appreciate this:-

Klondyke:
Agent_Smith: He's just a pro-Russian, anti-West character that loves to troll Teakdoor, for whatever reason.
Instead of "pro" or "anti", what about to think about a "double standard"?
What's bad for one is very good for the other - a thousand years well-proven method for brainwashing the population, preparing them for a "righteous" war...
If you're claiming to be a warrior against hypocrisy then stop being one, for starters.
And thanks for the 'red', comrade. It's very appropriate coming from you.
Why we don’t respect the West anymore
March 19, 2018
By Margarita Simonyan, editor-in-chief of RT TV channel and MIA “Russia today”
Translated by Scott
"Essentially, the West should be horrified not because 76% of Russians voted for Putin, but because this elections have demonstrated that 95% of Russia’s population supports conservative-patriotic, communist and nationalist ideas. That means that liberal ideas are barely surviving among measly 5% of population.
And that’s your fault, my Western friends. It was you who pushed us into “Russians never surrender” mode.
I’ve been telling you for a long time to find normal advisers on Russia. Sack all those parasites. With their short-sighted sanctions, heartless humiliation of our athletes (including athletes with disabilities ), with their “skripals” and ostentatious disregard of the most basic liberal values, like a presumption of innocence, that they manage to hypocritically combined with forcible imposition of ultra-liberal ideas in their own countries, their epileptic mass hysteria, causing in a healthy person a sigh of relief that he lives in Russia, and not in Hollywood, with their post-electoral mess in the United States, in Germany, and in the Brexit-zone; with their attacks on RT, which they cannot forgive for taking advantage of the freedom of speech and showing to the world how to use it, and it turned out that the freedom of speech never was intended to be used for good, but was invented as an object of beauty, like some sort of crystal mop that shines from afar, but is not suitable to clean your stables, with all your injustice and cruelty, inquisitorial hypocrisy and lies you forced us to stop respecting you. You and your so called “values.”
We don’t want to live like you live, anymore. For fifty years, secretly and openly, we wanted to live like you, but not any longer.
We have no more respect for you, and for those amongst us that you support, and for all those people who support you. That’s how this 5% came to be.
For that you only have yourself to blame. And also your Western politicians and analysts, news makers and scouts.
Our people are capable to forgive a lot. But we don’t forgive arrogance, and no normal nation would.
Your only remaining Empire would be wise to learn history of its allies, all of them are former empires. To learn the ways they lost their empires. Only because of their arrogance.
White man’s burden, my ass (in English in the original text – trans.)
But the only Empire, you have left, ignores history, it doesn’t teach it and refuses to learn it, meaning that it all will end the way it always does, in such cases.
In meantime, you’ve pushed us to rally around your enemy. Immediately, after you declared him an enemy, we united around him.
Before, he was just our President, who could be reelected. Now, he has become our Leader. We won’t let you change this. And it was you, who created this situation.
It was you who imposed an opposition between patriotism and liberalism. Although, they shouldn’t be mutually exclusive notions. This false dilemma, created by you, made us to chose patriotism.
Even though, many of us are really liberals, myself included.
Get cleaned up, now. You don’t have much time left."

A tray full of GOLD is not worth a moment in time.
Looks like HooHoo has found another putin-asslicking whackjob website.
