Can a telegram bot read/access a telegram channel that neither I or the bot is administrator of?
I know that up to last November it was not possible, but I have heard some people have done this, but so far I am not able to do it.
I would really appreciate your input and knowledge.
P.s. any workaround would be great.

All messages in secret chats use end-to-end encryption. This means only you and the recipient can read those messages — nobody else can decipher them, including us here at Telegram (more on this here). On top of this, Messages cannot be forwarded from secret chats.
You just need to go to the channel info and share the link of the desired channel with the Junction Bot to automate the process of receiving new messages from the(se) channel(s).
The FAQ reads:
All bots, regardless of settings, will receive:
- All service messages.
- All messages from private chats with users.
- All messages from channels where they are a member.
Bot admins and bots with privacy mode disabled will receive all messages except messages sent by other bots.
Bots with privacy mode enabled will receive:
- Commands explicitly meant for them (e.g., /command@this_bot).
- General commands from users (e.g. /start) if the bot was the last bot to send a message to the group.
- Messages sent via this bot.
- Replies to any messages implicitly or explicitly meant for this bot.
So, if your bot is a member of the channel it will receive all messages except those sent by other bots.
