Propaganda remains a powerful tool in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, with both regional and global implications. In the occupied territories of Ukraine, Russian forces have established "Cossack" formations and organized propaganda events to control the narrative. Large-scale disinformation campaigns aim to disrupt Ukrainian mobilization efforts, as highlighted by the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine. Russian influence extends beyond borders, evident in the inclusion of misleading atlases in foreign bookstores and attempts to compromise international festivals by promoting propaganda films. The creation of fake media outlets in occupied territories further isolates the information field, complicating efforts to counteract misinformation.

What is the purpose of the Cossack formations in Ukraine?

The Cossack formations in occupied Ukraine are part of Russia's strategy to exert control and suppression over the local population. These groups act as instruments for maintaining order and ensuring that the occupiers' narrative prevails. By leveraging historical identities such as the Cossacks, the propagandists aim to create a sense of legitimacy and continuity in the territories they control.

How does Russia use disinformation to disrupt Ukraine's mobilization?

Russia employs mass disinformation campaigns to create confusion and distrust among Ukrainian forces and the general population. By spreading false narratives and misinformation, such as overstating threats or falsifying events, they hinder effective mobilization and weaken the resolve of those defending Ukraine. This tactic aims to sow division and lower morale within the Ukrainian ranks.

What impact do fake youth parliaments have in occupied territories?

Fake youth parliaments in occupied territories serve as a propaganda tool to indoctrinate local youths and gain their allegiance to the occupying regime. By mimicking democratic institutions, these organizations aim to give an illusion of participatory governance while actually consolidating control and promoting the occupiers' agenda among the younger generations.

How are Russian propaganda films influencing international perceptions?

Russian propaganda films, such as "Russians at War," aim to influence international perceptions by presenting biased narratives that justify Russia's actions and vilify Ukraine and its allies. When screened at international film festivals, these films can subtly shift public opinion and undermine support for Ukraine by offering an alternative and distorted portrayal of the conflict.

Why is fake media in occupied Ukraine problematic?

Fake media in occupied Ukraine exacerbates the information warfare by spreading disinformation and propaganda to control the narrative. These outlets often distort facts, promote anti-Ukrainian sentiment, and legitimize the occupying power's actions, thereby isolating the population from independent journalism and unbiased information. This manipulation undermines efforts to challenge the occupiers' authority and complicates the process of restoring truth and transparency in these regions.
