YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAt the beginning of the war, it was biolabs. Then it was Nazis. Then it was Satanists. Now it is a dirty bomb. Every time Putin loses big on the battlefield, he escalates with a provocative accusation that shifts attention away from his failures. And while it is clear that the Kremlin has masterful PR campaigns that can send the international community off chasing a wild canard, at home in Russia the same distractions fit in to a propaganda model that removes any trace of responsibility from the President's shoulders and places unpopular decisions in the hands of underlings. Mikhail Fishman talks to Mikhail Overchenko, International Editor of The Moscow Times, about why it's important to remember that the Kremlin lies as a point of principle, and not as an exception.
