Russia carries out an information blockade of its inhabitants to hide the course and consequences of the war/Channel 24
Russian propaganda responds to events in Ukraine with lightning speed in order to timely change concepts and hide the truth from its people.
Information The blockade is beneficial to Putin, since misinformed people are easier to manage, the Center for Counteracting Disinformation notes. The department collected the main stuffing of Russia for 59 days of the war.
How Russian propaganda manipulates the minds of its audience
The beginning of the “special operation” was based on Putin's story about the fact that “Lenin is the architect of Ukraine” and the old fiction about “neo-Nazis” who have been suppressing the people of Donbass for 8 years.
Subsequently, the idea was transformed. Propaganda was silent about the flight of its soldiers from the Kiev region, Chernihiv region, Sumy region, but explained that “Russian heroes” had already “liberated these territories from neo-Nazis.”
A similar story happened in Mariupol. Putin refused to storm “Azovstal” and already on April 21 Shoigu announced a “victory” in the city and a “heroic” overturning of troops to other territories. Moreover, on April 22, fighting is still ongoing on the territory of Azovstal.
