== "previously suppressed events such as the first manned moon landing by the United States" ==
not only is this unsourced but this https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/apollo-moon-khrushchev/ interview with the son of nikita khruschev says that it was in Pravda:
q- How widely was the news of the moon landing disseminated in the Soviet Union in advance of the event?
a- "Of course, you cannot have people land on the moon and just say nothing. It was published in all the newspapers. But if you remember [back then] when Americans spoke of the first man in space, they were always talking of "the first American in space" [not Yuri Gagarin]. The same feeling was prevalent in Russia. There were small articles when Apollo 11 was launched. Actually, there was a small article on the first page of Pravda and then three columns on page five. I looked it up again."
if this was false information i would suggest removing the entire paragraph until you can properly factcheck it.
