According to Ivan Fechko, the Russian propaganda narratives are almost the same as they were 10 years ago, when the Russians invaded Ukraine.
“They say that the Russian Federation is fighting with NATO and not with Ukraine; they are trying to find fascists; they question the legitimacy of the Ukrainian government; they discredit the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In doing so, Russian propagandists send different messages to different audiences. Addressing the left-wing audience, they focus on anti-Americanism, NATO, and the Soviet Union’s ties with other countries. Addressing the right-wing audience, they emphasize that the Russian Federation is the only defender of ideology in the whole world,” he said.
