Yuliia Dukach - Aggressive Info Warfare still Threatens Democratic Institutions and Social Stability

<p>Russian Disinformation is relentless. Like floodwaters it envelops all

low-lying and unprotected things and when it recedes, leaves them coated

with a filthy, foul-smelling taint. We are all of us vulnerable.

Russian disinformation continues to be a threat to Ukrainian sovereignty

and unity, though is perhaps not as effective as it was in the years

2014-2022. Nonetheless new narratives are created and propagated

continuously to try and divide, confuse, and delay the allies supporting

Ukraine, and to erode support for Ukraine’s cause around the world.

Aggressive information warfare still threatens information security and

social stability, especially in states which Russia seeks to

destabilise, confuse, or coerce politicians into supporting it. Russia

is still a malign influence in the world.
