Hello again, Mongolia!

I've found your answer on a BBC site:

"Aldrin later recalled that among all the talk of peace and
tranquillity he was concerned that the flag would not fall over in
front of the television cameras. The proceedings were relayed to
Collins circling above who was 'probably the only person around
without television coverage'. In fact only four nations on earth,
China, Albania, North Korea, and North Vietnam did not inform their
populations of the landing, while the USSR made the announcement on a
television broadcast some six hours after the event."

BBC: Apollo 11, The First Landing

My Google search strategy:

Google Web Search: "landed on the moon" OR "moon landing" "did not inform"
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22landed+on+the+moon%22+OR+%22moon+landing%22+%22did+not+inform%22

Thanks for a great question! If anything is unclear or incomplete,
please don't hesitate to ask for clarification.

Best regards,
