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.
