Russians are trying to destabilize Ukrainian society in various ways. It looks like an attempt to grasp at least a straw.
This Channel 24 was told by a serviceman of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and political scientist Kirill Sazonov. According to him, the enemy simply has not yet understood that the people of Ukraine simply cannot be overcome.
Even money did not help Russia
Kirill Sazonov explained that Russia is investing too much money in propaganda.“The annual budget of one well-known propaganda channel was more than the sum of all Ukrainian public and private TV channels,” he noted.
According to him, a significant amount of the Russian budget was also spent on bribing the media in different regions and countries to destabilize Ukraine.
However, even this did not stop Ukraine to win the information war. Soldier namedtwo important points that influenced this.
First, Russian propagandists working for rations – this is one thing, another is Ukrainian journalists who put their heart and soul into what they were doing, – he explained.
In addition, both volunteers and experts joined the joint fight against disinformation in certain areas, such as political scientists who speak loudly about problems in all languages of the world.

Secondly, it is very important that Ukrainian journalists and bloggers have grown up in freedom and with the right to speak their own mind, argue and disregard the general line of the party. In Russia, media representatives are well-paid slaves. As experience shows, the dialectic “free people in war compete for their freedom” fights much more effectively than “slaves following the orders of the commander,” Sazonov said. Kirill Sazonov explained that the Russians from the first day of the war they tried to demoralize the Ukrainians. “Conventionally, even the washing machine tried to say in Russian that the Armed Forces of Ukraine had fled, the TPO had been killed, there was no one, they are already in Odessa, Nikolaev, they are entering Kiev, Ukraine fell, so that people would drop their hands and they would not resist,” – he stressed. The soldier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said that the Ukrainians managed to survive because they did not believe what sounded from the Russian lips. However, the enemy is trying to spread propaganda further, pitting civilians and military against each other. “Telling that while someone here is having fun in clubs, picking up girls, drinking, relaxing, and you are in a cold and wet trench, in a wet sleeping bag, you are warming a cup of coffee on a candle. Is this fair? stay awake here, sit under shelling, the military is provided with everything: import aid, salaries of 100 thousand. Here we are!” he remarked. Russians also love to put pressure on traditional issues of language and regions. They understand that while we are the only ones, this is a big problem for them,” the Ukrainian defender added. only among them, but also among their own. However, such actions by Russians always end in failure, so they should not be taken into account.The Russians are looking for any clue
