so I don't know if language can explain it so easily

Couldn't be a single explanation, and quite likely language isn't the main one indeed. Turkey doesn't have many English speakers as well.

But i do think it matters whether a people is able to consume news from the source because of the language they speak. In Europe for example, where in the east there is quite some (L2) Russian speakers opposed to western european countries, that makes it easier for Russia to spread a favourable view.
