An anti-Russian center for clarification of NSDC sanctions is being created in Ukraine
From now on, after the announcement of certain decisions by the National Security and Defense Council, Ukrainians will have the opportunity to find out how a sanctioned website or information channel “propagated the Russian agenda, split society and worked for the aggressor.”
Participants in the presentation of the Kyiv “Center for Strategic Communications and Information Security” spoke about this, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“We are actually on the front line because of Russian aggression and could fully feel the influence of fakes, disinformation, manipulations that come from the other side of the border and are aimed at us, at a calm, peaceful, free and decent country,” he said Minister of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine Alexander Tkachenko.
According to him, such a “Center for Strategic Communications and Information Security” should have been created a long time ago.
“The topic of creating such a center has finally begun to be implemented. The Center at the KIP (Ministry of Culture and Information Policy - ed.) will work together with Ukrinform, will be constantly in communication and contact with the National Security and Defense Council, with the relevant center there, as well as with international centers that exist in the Baltic countries in the Czech Republic, Finland and Brussels. Therefore, today you are present at a cool event, we begin to protect ourselves and inform ourselves,” the minister announced.
The head of the new “center”, director of the “Hybrid Threat Analysis Group” Lyubov Tsybulskaya told how this will happen.
“Our center will not be able to block them,” she said, answering the question of whether any sites would be blocked. “However, if the National Security and Defense Council decides to impose sanctions on one or another channel of information, then we will be able to create communication support and explain in detail why this is happening.”
“We will explain to people how this site or channel promoted the Russian agenda, how it split society and worked for the aggressor,” Tsybulskaya explained.
