Kremlin carries out information warfare without any moral grounds
24.10.2016
In October Vladimir Sazonov published an article in web journal “Diplomaatia”, “Kremlin’s total information war without any moral grounds” which, according to the author lays a foundation for a series of similarly themed articles.
The Sazonov’s article discusses, how the Russian propaganda machine has developed, about the adaptation with the fall of the Soviet Union and today’s Russia’s information war doctrine. He also gives a short brief on the information operations in Eastern Ukraine.
Propastop advice is to check out references in Sazonov’s article: books, quotations of the propaganda experts and documents on hybrid warfare.
Vladimir Sazonov is a researcher at the Baltic Defence College and Centre for Oriental Studies, at the University of Tartu.
