Propaganda undermines peace in society, erodes trust in public institutions and affects the security of the Republic of Moldova. Here is my essay on the Soros Foundation Moldova Open Space. https://lnkd.in/dXFdW3ut

Ukraine urgently needs support to defend democracy against Russian aggression. This is the message I am trying to deliver jointly with colleagues from German Marshall Fund of the United States and The Brookings Institution in our recent article. Despite significant anti-corruption progress, ongoing propaganda campaigns have falsely framed Ukraine as untrustworthy. The international community must act now to prevent the collapse of Ukraine's frontline and provide crucial assistance, which has been stalled in the House of Representatives for months and finally last weekend was supported by majority in Congress. The war in Ukraine has global implications, with autocratic regimes like Russia seeking to destabilize democracies. The U.S. and its allies must show leadership and deter Russia by providing immediate support to Ukraine. Additionally, Ukraine's fight against corruption is crucial for its democratic future. Despite facing relentless attacks, Ukraine has made strides in anti-corruption reforms, earning recognition from the EU. However, there is still work to be done, including strengthening asset recovery systems and implementing remaining reform recommendations. Failure to support Ukraine not only jeopardizes its democracy but also undermines the international rules-based order. It's time for global leaders to stand united against aggression and support Ukraine's fight for freedom and democracy. #StandWithUkraine #DefendDemocracy Transparency International Ukraine

The results of a sociological survey on what Ukrainians know about human rights and how they assess the state of their maintenance were presented. The results of the study showed that with a security shutdown, economic crisis and other humanitarian problems, among the value leaders of Ukrainians, freedom remains in the first place - 91% of respondents chose it as the main value. Also, respondents more often chose safety (79%), justice (76%) and dignity (71%). You can view the results of the study by the link ➡ https://lnkd.in/dJ3Awc4D

#Great #Read : "Assessing Russia's Actions in Ukraine and Syria, 2014–2022 Implications for the Changing Character of War" By JOHN A. PENNELL, PhD #LibroRecomendado #WorthToRead * What do #Russia🇷🇺’s actions in Ukraine and Syria, particularly between 2014 and 2022 tell us about the character of modern conflict? Do these actions indicate change or continuity? What linkages are there between Russia’s approaches to warfare today with those before, during, and after the Soviet era? Assessing Russia's Actions in Ukraine and Syria, 2014–2022: Implications for the Changing Character of War investigates how Russia’s actions in #Syria and #Ukraine reveal more continuity than change and more evolution than revolution in warfare. These actions mostly reflect what the Kremlin perceives as changes in strategic and technological contexts, which impacts who fights wars and how wars are fought. Given historic, cultural, and other ties between Russia and Ukraine, Russia’s activities in Ukraine prior to 2022 are not easily replicable outside of the post-Soviet space. This book argues that new-generation warfare, political warfare, or full-spectrum conflict better describes Russia’s activities than hybrid warfare. John A. Pennell addresses critical gaps in research by considering the totality of Russia’s actions and gleaning insights from those directly involved with aspects of Russia’s interventions. * *

Research on ‘The impact of Russian propaganda on Central Asian countries’. On 20 August 2024, from 12:00 to 14:00, the National News Agency ‘Ukrinform’ will host a roundtable discussion ‘Central Asia: Media Landscape and Russian Influences’, during which representatives of the Foundation for Public Diplomacy will present their project ‘The Impact of Russian Propaganda on Central Asian Countries’. The event is organised jointly with the Centre for Strategic Communications and Information Security. The key objective of the project is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the impact of Russian information policy on Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan. The structural review includes an assessment of the mechanisms and channels for spreading Russian propaganda, an analysis of its perception among different age and social groups, and its impact on public opinion and political sentiment in Central Asia.   The event envisages a public presentation of the material and discussion of the proposed aspects of the study in a professional environment to form substantive interaction and find constructive solutions to the issue of shaping Ukraine's information policy towards Central Asia. Leading experts, analysts, sociologists, diplomats and partners of the Foundation, employees of the Centre for Political Studies of the AlmaU School of Politics and Law (Kazakhstan) are invited to participate in the discussion.  The event will be broadcast on Ukrinform's website and YouTube channel.
