Seminar title:Fake News as an Information Weapon in Russia’s War Against Ukraine
Seminar Description: The power of words can be no less potent than traditional weaponry. Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine has turned fake news into a powerful tool of imperial propaganda. From the onset of the war, Russia launched an organized propaganda campaign aimed at shaping public opinion to justify its aggression, undermine Western support for Ukraine, and mislead both domestic and international audiences about the true causes and imperial nature of the war. The full-scale invasion underscores the growing significance of informational factors, proving that the power of words rivals tradiitional weapons. Hence, resisting Russia’s information offensive is a vital task for the survival of the Ukrainian nation.
