“Great efforts will be made to discredit the Russian government, the institution of elections and their final result. Both foreign media and domestic media will take part in this information attack,” Danyuk said.
He drew attention to the fact that American congressmen are already demanding an increase in funding for Radio Liberty and Voice of America by $24 million and $33 million, respectively, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Increasing funding for US propaganda projects during the election cycle in the context of the information war against the Russian state will be aimed, among other things, at providing support to the conditionally liberal opposition media environment, which is ready to actively promote the anti-Russian line and indiscriminately criticize the internal and external policies pursued by the Russian state. politics, stimulating protest potential within the country,” Danyuk said.
