Those years I already was not much aware of the lies the Soviet media was spreading/imposing. BBC World Service was on in my kitchen all the time that I was there. It was my only source of news. And no, I would not say it was my source of truth. I was a little bit ironic regarding the BBC style of trashing all former colonies (including the USA).
Also, this helped me learn English. The time in the USSR was dragging very slowly. So I had time, and by 1991 I was the translator every time people from abroad were visiting our company.
