Here are some of the key messages communicated by the speakers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Russkiy Mir” depends not only on disinformation but on a whole range of other tools, such as institutions, active measures, historical revisionism, and influence through religion. In particular, Russian diaspora is actively weaponized to impose “Russkiy Mir” abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Russkiy Mir” also relies on actors that support “traditional values” as opposed to the liberal ones in the target states, e.g. National Rally in France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The concept has different manifestations in various parts of the world: it is not static. However, the common feature is finding and attacking vulnerabilities of the target societies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ukraine has unique experience in the fight against Russian disinformation, information operations, active measures, and propaganda, which should unite international efforts in the information realm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The world has not yet realized that “Russkiy Mir” is not attacking Ukraine only. It is an expansionist project targeting liberal democracies worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A system of national resilience is vital to develop for a comprehensive response to the challenges of “Russkiy Mir”. Dissemination of positive narratives about Ukraine should be an integral part of such a system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
