ICFRC: Russia's Persistent Disinformation and Propaganda War Against the West
Listen to an audio podcast of this program.
Since 2000, the Kremlin has been waging a relentless information war against the U.S., NATO, the European Union, democracy, and liberal values. Russian disinformation and propaganda, disseminated to one extent or another on every continent, achieved hyper status as Vladimir Putin prepared to invade Ukraine. It continues in its varied, preposterous ways as the conflict endures. The presentation examines the nature, goals, and consequences of these ongoing struggles for the hearts and minds of audiences and the West's late arrival on this bloodless, nonetheless perilous battlefield.
