After Russia's missile attack on the Okhmatdyt children's hospital in Kyiv, Moscow is spreading the narrative of "peace at any cost" among Ukrainians in every possible way. This was stated by the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation, Andriy Kovalenko, UNN reports.
Details
The CPA explains that the narrative of the need for "peace at any cost" is being promoted in Ukrainian society, which in fact means peace on Russia's terms.
Andriy Kovalenko, the head of the Center for Public Advocacy, explained that this was spread by Russian agents of influence, and some opinion leaders picked up on it and made traffic on this conspiracy.
The main goal of the Russians' campaign is to give a part of society hope that the war can end at any time, but on Russia's terms. And when this is followed by an increase in terror, people who have already believed in the imminent end of the war begin to resonate with the relevant demands. The Russians are involved in this process and artificially try to scale certain narratives among the population
According to him, Russia seeks to get a percentage of people in Ukrainian society who will support peace on Russian terms.
Many influencers should study the history of Ukraine, at least the twentieth century, to know about the genocide and not broadcast narratives favorable to Russians. Russians need Ukrainian territory without Ukrainians. They want to expel or destroy us all
He also explained that the enemy's aggressive information operation is currently underway in parallel with acts of terror, so it is important for opinion leaders to take a responsible approach to the messages they broadcast to their audience.
