They expect an intensification of narratives promoting the idea that sanctions "do not affect" the Russian economy in any way, but only "harm Europeans and Americans themselves."
In addition, an open campaign of escalating nuclear threats is expected, within which the idea of Russia's allegedly "unprecedented" military superiority, primarily of the nuclear triad forces, will be promoted.
They also predict an intensification of campaigns accusing the EU and the US of disrupting peace negotiations, increased discrediting of the activities of the Coalition of the Willing, the spread of manipulations around Ukraine's state budget for 2026, the continuation of the "Black Winter" intimidation campaign, and so on.
Recall
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Russia plans to increase propaganda spending by 54% in 2026. This comes against the backdrop of cuts in military spending and funding for state programs, including healthcare.
