OREANDA-NEWS. Starting from 1 October 2014, TEO smart and digital TV users will be able to watch a new channel – Dozhd (meaning "rain" in Russian). The Radio and Television Commission of Lithuania satisfied the request of TEO to grant the rights to re-broadcast the Russian independent television channel in Lithuania.

TEO will be the first nationwide re-broadcaster in Lithuania to have included Dozhd into its main package of TV channels.
 
Dozhd is a channel run by experienced journalists. It broadcasts reports about Russia, events in Ukraine and is not welcomed by major television operators in Russia.
 
It is expected that this independent television channel, which devotes about 70 per cent of its broadcast time to live broadcasts, will become especially popular among the Russian-speaking population of Lithuania.
 
The programme of Dozhd is dominated by news, analytical and discussion shows. TV viewers, who are not active news followers, will be able to turn on the new channel in search of high-quality documentaries, concerts, and book reviews. Dozhd will be broadcast 24 hours a day.
 
From October 1, viewers of TEO digital TV shall also watch a new popular American entertainment channel – Fox.
