Quote by KP, the longer version:
"Jul 11, 2025
Russia's hybrid warfare strategy extends beyond the battlefield, targeting the very fabric of Western democracies. Through sophisticated disinformation campaigns, the Kremlin aims to erode support for Ukraine and weaken NATO alliances. By infiltrating social media platforms, funding extremist groups, and manipulating public opinion, Russia seeks to destabilize democratic societies from within.
In this video, Kyiv Post delves into the tactics employed by Russia to spread propaganda and misinformation across the globe, exploring how these strategies are designed to influence citizens in democratic nations, turning them against their own interests and undermining collective security efforts.
Pekka Kallioniemi, a foremost global expert on Russian disinformation operations and creator of the Vatnik Soup series, sheds light on the Kremlin's manipulation tactics and the urgent need for Western nations to bolster their defenses against such covert operations."
