The Solzhenitsyn Center's May 2026 announcement says the only authorized English translation of Two Hundred Years Together is slated for Spring 2028, and that all English versions currently available are pirated and unauthorized. That supports the claim that no official English translation existed as of the posting date.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
What was said
… well known, Platonov being another so many of these great writers, very few of them either became popular in the West, spoke English, wrote in English, and it's only been very recently that a lot of this stuff has been translated for the very first time. There's still not an official translation of 200 Years Together into English. The we have what we have access to, unless you do speak Russian, and I believe it's also translated into French, or like some some stock copies.

Supports. The Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn Center states that an authorized English translation by Creed and Culture is slated for Spring 2028, and that English versions currently available are illegal, pirated, and unauthorized.[1]
Supports. A 2026 download page says an authorized translation 'awaits the completion of English publication of The Red Wheel,' consistent with no official English edition yet being in print.[2]
Context. Several sources point to free, unofficial English texts of the book (archive.org, a Goodreads Q&A linking to fan translations). These are unauthorized and do not make an official translation exist.[3][4][5]
Context. The extracted claim matches the passage's own wording ('still not an official translation... into English') and adds no new scope, so it is graded as made.
