July 2025 is the anniversary of YouTube being blocked in Russia, a ban on searching for extremist information on the Internet, and a time of interesting and scandalous interviews. Meet the new top 20 socio-political Russian-language YouTube channels. In this issue, we will look at what positions in total views the channels from the rating took, which videos were the most popular, and which videos outside the rating are worth paying attention to. We will also discuss why there were mass unsubscribes from channels in July and how political YouTube is doing a year after the de facto blocking in Russia.
