    Its odd. While speaking of Moscow, Kiev, Warsaw, Washington or Paris is common as an alias for the country itself, “Kremlin” is weird. A kremlin is a fortified complex. You have a kreml in Nowgorord, Smolensk etc. Just historic buildings.

      If we’re being neutral, they can use “Kremlin” in any headlines that they would put the “White House”.

      The White House is close to crushing Gaza

      Yeah, I think it’s self-explanatory why this is a bad title
