examples include russia's propaganda campaigns before its invasion of ukraine. the united states, france and poland are facing some of the worst media polarization. the civil society organization wants countries to adapt legal frameworks and systems to protect information online. the european union has proposed laws to limit lawsuits designed to silence journalists. they would give courts more power to dismiss cases if they are fun to be abusive or unjustified. the eu criticized some governments for using defamation proceedings as a form of harassment. >> the role of journalists and those that keep power in check is tremendous. the package you have proposed today will ensure that they can exercise this in some come up but not all member states, defamation is still up was a month -- criminal offense that carries a prison sentence. member states are therefore encouraged to abolish prison sentences. they should favor the use of civil law instead of criminal law for such cases. mohammed: let's go ahead and bring in our best. rebecca vincent is director at reporters

how do you think they work with propaganda and disinformation ? what do you think?he age of 14 no longer pick up the phone ah, you understand, she communicated there and gave an interview there by some a-a a-a yes yes opposition media well, again, this is for that party guy who is already against uh- uh kremlin power and mmm chetery very granty told about the future that the main thing was that there was a change in the political regime by changing the official functional space and then it is necessary go to the fact that ordinary russian players did not take responsibility for the war and everything else which need to be experimented with. yes, we do there is an experience of the second world war, a real rich experience , and the archival ones were opened in the 90s, we know in detail what the americans and the british did, and great psychological psychologists worked at these companies, but it was not said then that he was the first professor of psychoanalysis from the external etymbridge, a lot of germans worked there, special categories of jews, a lot of them, f

propaganda is not a small piece of disinformation .paganda, it is a formula to form and manipulate identity, yes , who are you, and in this regard, of course, kremlin propaganda has been working for a long time, and what we know has been written quite successfully. the basic narrative is a vision of the world, it definitely works, but urgently, a lot of social sociology has been around since long ago in russia and shows that it works, that is, it is still the main one. it seems to me that the russian narrative is now not our fault, they forced us to do it, they didn’t let us do it выборов because the evil west is attacking us and we need to fight back, and everything else seems to me to be superimposed on it well, it's very convenient to explain your problems and your annual decisions and some other forces that simply forced you, but i'm curious about your the opinion of any people can be intoxicated by propaganda , is there something in russian culture that makes such a development possible and that they believe so much in their telev

will fall, but it is obvious that from that here is this fallacy, propaganda will fall, so that theyee the fallacy of propaganda, they need ukrainian victories on the fronts, this is indisputable without this, without this, uh, remove uh, here is this. not even a curtain, but such a wall of propaganda is impossible, and that is why it depends on ukraine today whether uh, russian society will be able to return to civilization , or whether it will remain uh, uh, a victim of uh, imperial propaganda, sir, please tell me in the meantime, you know these days, may 8, i am sure that in the future , on the 9th, we remember what happened on our broadcasts and try to tell people the truth, debunking certain myths, certain fakes, things that are constantly used by russian propaganda, the putin regime and they constantly manipulate us. we even have a special project of historical resistance, and within the framework of this project, historians and well-known people, experts, respected with authority tell what was really wrong as it is now presented, at least in the e plane of information precisel

some ukrainian propaganda about how it says in my experience, the best resistance to propaganda is accessarchival documents, access to the truth and the opportunity to freely discuss it, what we see today in the united states and in the west in the world and in the free world in general, this is precisely the fact that the opportunity is freely and independently without pressure, without any er, it is without censorship, without propaganda instructions, what to say, how to speak, this is our answer and why we are fighting and, of course, documents, archival documents, they are not extremely important, because they provide an opportunity to interpret , reinterpret and, er, if we were to deconstruct that propaganda, see how it actually does not coincide with the real world, if we look at the propaganda used by russia, then we will see that there are in fact a huge number of inconsistencies , and how such a small touch can be mentioned, for example, that in fact in the soviet union all information about the second world war was classified. practically everything that was not published the of

soon, photos of him appeared on german propaganda leaflets. they read that jacob has voluntarily surrendered to the nazis. berlin, morally stalk or bus for his shoulder. linear new jack or drew rush, really stylish judge, just good preparedness g for her romker. yes, trevino, jewelry, fin style in the profile. when you sean broad, jabrisa, broad, new shirts, emeralds move, lester young. had indeed been captured. the only difference was that he was captured during an attempt to break out of a seat rather involuntarily surrendering. he was brought to his exit house and concentration camp. 35 kilometers from berlin. he was approved, was a prominent prisoner. he was not imprisoned inside the prisoner's camp for ordinary prisoners where we are standing now. there was a special cam for prominent prisoners and this is where he was in prison. jak of jewish really was kept in one of these barracks intelligence officers, were interrogating him every day, but still couldn't make jak of cooperate. he was in the capital 1943. there was even a myth that ger

they were trained and prepared by nazi propaganda to day. even the radical measures are not radical enough. years have covers. he is to say, ah, you, in the ussr, german soldiers were captives of another myth. that in order to bring down the soviet system, it was essential to annihilate the jews, since they were believed to be the primary foundation of bolshevism. in other occupied countries, the germans would force the jews into ghettos. though they were allowed to live. after invading the usaa, the nazis began to annihilate entire jewish communities. revision with the group the group was so i'll is look for you pull to just get us deal of since you are new. do to do old dot between yours lose thought your program. when you can show the you got more business law. goldberg cause or the public will moon. for all you ballistics, when you do brussels group propaganda locked, you little board or sub listed on the moon user in your book, you little the for the was to love was really sure when you're ross forward in his younger years, years of gar

, quotations, and propaganda went. and it is a frustrating to this. i not only because it results in people withdrawing from society to slide a done sort of, but it also gives the local population the false impression that all ration speak is all ration germans are affiliated with patents. i little says, boxing i little foundation putin hood a sin medina shall bat, works in a heart clinic and is a local politician for the christian democrats. she also volunteers with vision and association, which has been working for the integration of russian germans for more than 20 years. oh, alexander irina, and susanna are also involved since the russian invasion, they've seen fake news about the war spread like wildfire through their community. it's rallying people against ukrainian refugees and stoking fears of an alleged hatred of russians by many russian germans find this unsettling. that is, if you come through me, oh well, he has oh, probably my teeth in our circle of friends is divided into 2 camps in the c o. get one side

this information proliferating on social media, but also outright propaganda. and that's not just a matter of internet trolling that can be actually done on official media channels . and so, um this year we have seen that within countries including our own democracy. so i know we're, we're mostly talking about rush at the moment, but it's worth noting that part of the trend is even within our democracies, the proliferation of opinion media, the sort of fox news, if occasion of media is also contributing to this chaos. and then of course, the propaganda wars of authoritarian states including russia against democracies. it's all creating a lot of tension when it comes to, to global crass freedom. so it's worth noting that of course, while the ukraine of conflict was preceded by an information war, this is not a new phenomenon. this has been building for years when it comes to russia, and it's not only russia we've pointed to for a number of years to concerned with china. for example, on report. is that what is published? a landmark report just in december, really

other propaganda efforts is just how much better have fact checkers online gotten at countering propaganda. this information well from reporters about border said, we have actually focused on fact checking initiatives because our crust read amended means we focus on journalism. and frankly, if something has not been fact, it is not professional journalism. we have worked in states to develop that journalism trust initiative, which is essentially a white listing exercise. we've developed a standard initially at the european level, but which we're now working to roll out more globally. that looks to sort of encouraged and incentive fi incentivized. journalism that has gone through a rigorous chat to show that it is about professional ethical standards of journalism. so we feel strongly that it shouldn't be about the content, but about the process, because then you address the content issues that arise. but if you only address content as act checking initiatives, do that his own li, addressing the symptom and the disease. it's him, the un has said that the online attacks on journalists and in

yes, this is counter propaganda yes, do not be afraid of this word propaganda we propagate better.e agitate for better before the departments in the central committee of the party and before the district committees, there were propaganda and agitation, we propagandized our way of life , we fought, we agitated for everything better, as we understand it, this is happening today, and above all in the west. they just laugh at us. yes, propagandists are agitators, why are they laughing to knock us down the table, therefore, there is nothing dangerous if we promote our way of life and agitate for it, but we must learn to conduct counter-propaganda against the propaganda that is deployed against us. it is necessary to develop mechanisms to counteract countermeasures. intense pressure on people's awareness with the help of psychological techniques, it is necessary to respond to a prepared proposal that will help improve the information policy in the current realities. all night long all morning, they continue to fire at donetsk with heavy artillery. it seems that american 155 mm howitzers

this is counter propaganda don't be afraid of this word propaganda we promote better. we we agitate for better before the departments in the central committee of the party and before the district committees, there were propaganda and agitation propagandized their way of life fought agitated for everything better, as we understand it, this is what is happening today, and above all in the west. they just laugh at us. yes, propagandists are agitators, why are they laughing to confuse us, therefore, there is nothing dangerous if we propagate our way of life and agitate for it, but we must learn to conduct counter propaganda against the propaganda that is deployed against us, we must develop mechanisms to counter the counter world. here are proposals that will help improve the information policy in the current realities, when there is frank pressure on people's minds with the help of psychological techniques, you need to respond. looking at ukraine , it is clear that a scenario is unfolding there that has not been implemented on our land in telegram channels today there is

because if you say propaganda, then of course they will be propaganda, they are here propaganda in order to lure again and the population of georgia and everything is absolutely so that we are not in favor of ukraine or that we have a pro-russian the police does not understand and the government understands that this is impossible because, for example, there was the last question when, in my opinion, messi was back there or 3 weeks ago, 87% of georgians think that the war in ukraine is a war, the same as their war this is because it hurts us so much. as for the so-called referendum, well, i have this kind of approach to this question . that putin's graves it is mandatory in ukraine, that is, now he is so weak that he thinks that he will find something there and does not find anything like that, we did not help him to announce some kind of we are small, small, such am-m, positive news. yes, because i understand everything that he wanted to take kiev and it worked. you all understand that ours are advancing er there and er completely threw back the russian troops from kharkov. and what doe

enough points in the russian-ukrainian war, which naturally makes europe very vulnerable to such propaganda then what did he say at this press conference, uh, he stood up for surkov, let's go with him and let's continue. surkov, i'm friends. i think you all know very well, do you remember this man who is called the architect of a large amount of propaganda in ukraine, but now we can to see marmot srebydnynikov, they were friends and now they are obviously friends, and this person came up with the name of the novorossiya project, it is all the money of the lpr, and therefore, of course, we can consider him one of the most serious enemies, and for us, hmm, because he invented a lot of just some not human moments, and he put kirillzerennikov in his time as a drinker because he was also a writer. a play called okolonelya , a performance that was really successful, it was discussed and criticized and praised. by the way, surkov did not perform under his own name at the time, but hid behind another , and here is such an interesting story that this is exactly the house arrest of kirill-serennikov

propaganda is the kitchen of war. propaganda is war itself."ow big of a role are propaganda and disinformation playing in the war in ukraine? gulnoza: well, first of all,he information war between russia and ukraine did not start february 24, when russia launched a full-scale invasion in ukraine. it has been going on for 8 years, since russia annexed crimea and gain control over eastern regions of ukraine in 2014. both russian and ukrainian audiences have been victim of propagda. we have seen a lot of misinformation, disinformation, propaganda, and outright lies about events in both countries. but what we can see in ukraine is that ukrainians have become much better in debunking fake news and fighting propaganda. they have been better at reaching out to world audiences and bringing their version of events in ukraine. that is exactly how we learned about the horrors of war in different areas across ukraine taking place these days. the biggest victims of rsian propaganda are russians and the first place, because as i said, and you mentioned also

and in terms of, for russian propaganda. yes, it's, they're attempting to do that, but they're 2 at georgia has been living under a sublet propaganda for 70 years. and the resistance to that propaganda which was very organized. and i think that we are better able to defend ourselves against, including fake news and propaganda because of this past them. some other countries that have not known what it means to be under complete control too. and distorted information, residential rubbish. really. thank you very much for your time. thank you. ah. pico africa, planting trees and supporting athletic talent. how does that work for you? so it's all about. if it is bob, here's the cause. of course. it's an extensive project. more and more schools are adopting the initiative, which is already helped to plant more than $10000.00 trees. pico africa next on dw, the free port system, a world wide network of duty, free, high security warehouses. what's that? how is it stored isn't cleared through customs who controls that story? is there

and georgia has been living gander, sublet propaganda for 70 years and resistance to that propaganda which was very organized. and i think that we are better able to defend ourselves against, including fake news and propaganda because of this past to them. some other countries that have not known what it means to be under complete control, to and distorted information. president sort of michigan. thank you very much for your time. thank you. ah, litter is preventing this little guy from lounging on the beach. plastic waste is contaminating the galapagos islands in the pacific. environmentalists pick up as much as they can, but it keeps washing up on shore. it's a race against time because eventually plastic waste becomes plastic sand global 3000. next on d w o. in. ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ready ah, nico is in germany to learn german lloyd pinnacle. why not learn with him d w e learning course, eco's fake ah, ah, welcome to global 3000 eco friendly businesses. crowd funding gets green ideas off the grounds and gone on the floods of

lot, but also propaganda, elements of propaganda are er, it er, will be very large-scale and will distortsomeday it will hit the beavers in the society, there may be a big disappointment from the reality that will not meet the inflated expectations, that is, as i said about the fact that the national marathon would like to have more of such a balanced approach to everything that is happening well , at one time i was touched, so to speak, by the days of brezhnev , and there was always glory of the cpsu . this virtual reality is real, and when the encounter with harsh reality came, i don't know, they were extremely surprised, and there was a fear that this, i don't know, weak glorified fanfare and so on, so that they would not darken or overshadow the real the situation in reality consists not only of the situation on the fronts, which should be commented on by leading experts and military active military retired military, but it also applies to issues of domestic policy. of these or other legislative initiatives, if there is no deterrent to them, well , accordingly, then we may be unpleasa

, and after a little er, propaganda turns against his customer, er, and lukashenko he begins not onlybelieve in this, but also to run away in his thoughts precisely because he watches television that he controls and controls . and it seems to me that it is not a little important here that years while the rise of the coronavirus continued, he was one of the people on earth who had access to vladimir putin, and i did not write off this lukashenka paranoia and his ability to influence vladimir pusin and have certain effects on him the influence is precisely that regarding external threats, for example, the nato threat, when putin announced the beginning of the so-called special military operation, he actually spoke in the words of alexander lukashenko, completely repeating the theses that lukashenko voiced in the 20th year. therefore, it is very important to remember that lukashenko is not only an ally in this war, but also an accomplice to all the crimes . propagandistic things yes eh and is it possible to see you observe a-ah somehow in the media space or or maybe not only in the media

has been living under soviet propaganda for 70 years and resistance to that propaganda which was very organized. and i think that we are better able to defend ourselves against, including fake news and propaganda because of this past than some other countries that have not known what it means to be under complete control and distorted information. president sort of miss really thank you very much. for your time, thank you. ah with ah, the world is what has changed in the text on the military? 9 years after the disaster need them to dish health bear with me and to look at new york with can alone. so sustainable production with stories that people of a world over information, they provide the opinions they want to express d, w on facebook and twitter up to date and in touch. follow us. it started out with the spooky intimidation and transformed it into an orgy of hate and violence. the history of the ku klux klan, the oldest terrorist organization in the united states, its members fight for races, state ruled by white supremacy. what we're talking about here is not only disorganized vio

and in terms of, for russian propaganda. yes, it's, they're attempting to do that, but there to georgia has been living under sublet propaganda for 70 years and resistance to that propaganda which was very organized. and i think that we are better able to defend ourselves against, including fake news and propaganda because of this past them. some other countries that have not known what it means to be under complete control, to and distorted information for president remish. really thank you very much. for your time, thank you. ah. in good shape. only a few cultures, consider fat bodies to be stylish. but i've been people really help here. and can someone be both with we are busting dieting meds, outdated prejudices with from older brother to worst enemy, moldova. and the fear of russia, a small country fears for its independence, but they are helping those who ukraine anyway. and every day, people are feeling the russian invasion. ah, 60 minutes. oh d w, ah mm. sometimes the b. c shall rush out at you out t v, highlights an

that is, it was effective propaganda, that is why they reproduce it in russia, well, sometimes theren-reproduction, but a simple copy -past style we see a lot of such quotes, let's say it like this , of propaganda images of the third reich. well, the russian military is constantly killing, torturing , raping those people whom they supposedly came to liberate how can people who kill a young mother tie a small living child to her corpse and land a landmine so that everyone dies when they try to solve this somehow, how can these people be convinced that they are fighting against nazism, it is not clear to me how does it all fit together in one mind, olya , it is not clear to you because you are not familiar with the theory of the soviet struggle against nazism, in fact , the struggle must take place for the sake of victory, full stop , that is, absolutely all methods are used to destroy the enemy and when you act it is in this framework that e what is happening is happening, we know that the soviet troops when they entered europe in 1944 and 1945 were not a model of humanism either, the

so, the unsinkable fake of ukrainian propaganda resurfaces beautifully in the information space.o of the war of light, they neutralize a sea mine on the odessa coast, according to legend, it was installed, of course, by evil russians. but why then was the marking of the ammunition shamed smeared over what could be there? blurring why these are soviet mines, yes, which were most likely in storage of objects of the black sea fleet of the soviet union left ukraine by inheritance. eh, well, they used them. well, it's like cruelty , to a greater extent. here is what is actually written on the mines in the ir-730 or product 730, the type of ammunition is easily guessed. it looks like a small anchor mine. so, really, a small diameter of less than meters, a mass of 173 kg, a warhead of 20 kg, is unlikely to let a large ship go to the bottom, but for small boats and civilian ships it is a mortal danger. it would seem and why hide the markings, but the fact is that ammunition was developed during the great patriotic war in the 20th century . of course, it managed to become morally obsolete

firstly, on the territory of ukraine, is there a city of propaganda?always exists and there are always people who will work on this propaganda in one way or another, and it is necessary to counteract it, and this marathon is such a very good tool that unites the information day and creates a single channel of reliable information that can be used and with which you can work in relation to the video. maybe you turn off the video and we will hear you on audio only mr. dmytro hello yes please abroad , this is a very difficult question that concerns the presence of an extensive system of representative offices of our media abroad , on the one hand, on the other hand, the presence and of our presence on the air abroad. and the third component is the presence of experts who reflected our point of view abroad and could present it there, because with the introduction of martial law, we have a ban on the departure of e-e people abroad . as experts who previously represented ukraine on international platforms and could contrast information from ukraine with that

or counter-propaganda in ukraine. information from russia from russian propaganda channels and why ourmachine still does not work the way the russian one works in russia and does not convey the truth about what is happening in ukraine , why? i think that we will actually win the information war in the west. he throws a lot of money at the gas station, and in fact, especially over there, italy. indeed , russian propaganda is very noticeable there. they try to use the representative companies of the companies that sit there, they are there they buy everyone in bulk at retail, that’s all in fact. it’s known and we just have to approach it very systematically and allocate the countries to appoint responsible people for them. uh, that is, people saw mariupol on the screens, they saw the heroism of azola, they understood what azov was really about, and for me it was such a landmark, very symbolic decision, you probably remember when the japanese removed uh, azov from the list of terrorist organizations, the japanese before that they always have a very close plan, they study every detail like

, how to counter propaganda to people in occupied cities well, this is a difficult question, first ofas they said in one work, read morning and noon e- is it russian or these soviet newspapers last year yes, but someone must tell you this during the day and here you know i'm asking you partly maybe as a psychologist and maybe it's not exactly at the address how not to just resist but how to resist i am not far from this propaganda, please try to explain it, they hear us. maybe in kherson and mariupol there is some way and it is important to convey to these people, well, some messages so that they resist . that people should also take into account that this is propaganda, that it can somehow act and keep itself in a more or less adequate state using other sources of information , so it can be said that it can be avoided somehow well, hide and somehow protect your psyche. well , you can, but this is done at the expense of the availability of other sources, therefore, as a rule, you need either access to the internet or access to what uh-uh there are television programs, satellite progra

or counter- propaganda in ukraine. propaganda channels of russia and why our propaganda machine still russian one works in russia and does not convey the truth about what is happening in ukraine, why? i think that we will actually win the information war in the west. a lot of money, and in fact, especially there, in italy, the topic of russian propaganda is very noticeable . retail is all, in fact, it is known and we just have to approach it very systematically and allocate the countries to appoint the responsible for them. i also heard about the issue in a strange way, but you know, there are much less of them now than before, but in reality, it is simply several times less eh, that is, people saw mariupol on the screens they saw the heroism of azov, they understood what azov is really about, and for me it was such a symbolic, very hydraulic decision, you probably remember when the japanese removed uh, azov from the list of terrorist organizations, the japanese always treat it very close-up, they study every detail like that and then they ask everyone there and what they were cleanin

this is what the propaganda was focused on. and now when the question arose that the armed forces of ukraine are destroying the armed forces of the aggressor here seriously. in ukraine, the question arose about mobilization and putin's regime. his propagandists are in a trap, how will they now come out and say oh no, now we need to mobilize everyone who was watching this war on the couch, they were supposedly comfortable and they supported such a war somewhere, and now the question is, now they can and with and it is quite possible to take him to the army and leave him to die on ukrainian land as cannon fodder. that is why he is and what is the main thing. now you know the trap for the putin regime and for his propagandists. therefore, any decision they would make now in fact, there are no economic resources working against them in the russian federation itself, and there have been no mobilization resources in the russian federation for a long time, in fact, the same military reserve that they need so much and many other things

yes, there's propaganda on all sides as there always is. >> i'd like to bring -- >> there's always propagandaspecially when it comes to war but now there's this constant war of information, that's from both the state and corporate media in both the u.s. and western world and russia and china and everywhere else for that matter. i first heard about these allegations vladimir putin was dealing with cancer or chronic illness several months ago which means it could be long-standing thing the russian government has taken pains to hide from the public or western propaganda that's been the threat. we don't know it is one of those things we will have to wait to find out what i will say is i don't know is going to matter much from what's happening, the invasion of ukraine or the geopolitical balance between u.s. and nato and russia and it's allies in terms of what happened specifically to vladimir putin. vladimir putin is one person, the entire system, the russian government has just as big of a built in state and military industrial complex the u.s. does. it be like thinking of something were to happ

even we are a terrible propaganda machine, we don't do that. comes for us, and we need to go to advertising after the advertisement of the person, we return the word, he continues to speak live on the air. if anyone says that this is not so, then a bad person. and i why means that i 'm trying to understand here, means, as far as it's all uh, hmm agreed. let's finish the story now with a provocation, but on holidays. there has been an attempt to seize serpent's island, which has now been occupied by russian troops for several weeks now and they say. yes, they say that this operation was undertaken on the advice of american and british ukrainian allies. can i tell you a little more about this now, it means what is happening, and i will operate on the official information of our ministry of defense, the order to attack the island was given by personal zelensky on the advice of american and british advisers, although the general staff of ukraine and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces were against this adventure, which zelensky wanted to pre

and of course, the ukrainian propaganda again did not do without fakes, but the belgorod region.time they are distributing pictures of leaflets that were allegedly pasted around the city with a call to return it to the bosom of the kharkiv region. this is a quote, however, on the frames there are close-ups, pieces of paper. yes, faceless walls. in general, it is completely incomprehensible that the pictures were taken precisely in belgorod. well, in leaflets they refer to as fake as the papers themselves. legion as i understand it, the specialists here are from the ukrainian center for conducting special propaganda. you need to master the budgets, and the budget. we know this is about ten million dollars a day and photographs. here are some leaves. in this regard, they fit very well into the development of the budget. i think they took pictures of it even from the comfort of their office. this suggests that in belgorod everything is fine with us, that is, uh, the police work in a good regular mode. and these guys didn't even dare there, the sun. i think they did not tense up much

and of course, ukrainian propaganda again did not do without fakes near the belgorod region.his time they are distributing pictures of leaflets that were allegedly posted around belgorod with a call to return the city to bosom, kharkiv region. this is a quote. however, the shots show close-ups of pieces of paper and faceless walls. in general, it is completely incomprehensible that the pictures were taken precisely in belgorod. well, in the leaflets they refer to the same fake league as the papers themselves. i understand that he was a specialist from the ukrainian center for the introduction of special propaganda. you need to master the budgets, and the budget. we know this is about ten million dollars a day and photographs. here are some leaflets. in this regard, they fit very well into the development of the budget. i think they this was photographed, even without leaving their office. this means that in belgorod everything is fine with us, that is, uh, the police work in a good regular mode. and these guys did not dare even to go there from the street. i think they didn't
