This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unian.ua\/war\/pro-zamah-na-zelenskogo-kirila-budanova-ta-rosiyski-konservi-v-ukrajini-12735117.html\">was stated by <\/a>military expert Yehor Checherynda. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>According to Checherinda, the main goal of the Kremlin&#8217;s new campaign is to undermine the credibility of key figures in Ukraine &#8211; President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Oleksandr Syrskyi , and Chief of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine Kyrylo Budanov.<\/p>\n\n<p>&#8220;Russian intelligence services and propagandists have intensified the spread of the narrative of deep enmity within the Ukrainian command. This is a basic and constant theme of the IPSO, which the enemy has been using systematically and methodically for several months now,&#8221; the expert noted.<\/p>\n\n<p>Checherynda emphasized that the new information campaign was launched by self-proclaimed President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko. In an interview with Russian propagandist Yevgeny Popov, he called the president of Ukraine as a &#8220;traitor&#8221; and claimed a possible assassination attempt on Zelenskyy by the head of the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine. <\/p>\n\n<p>The expert believes that the intensification of such information attacks is related to Russia&#8217; s military failures, particularly in the Kursk region, where Ukrainian forces liberated more than 90 settlements.<\/p>\n\n<p>&#8220;When there is absolutely nothing to brag about on the battlefield, &#8221; Whenthere is nothing to bragabout on the battlefield, the Russian Federation traditionally turns onthe &#8216;television artists,'&#8221; Checherinda said.<\/p>\n\n<p>He also warned that in the future , such Kremlin narratives could be spread not only by Russian media, but also&#8221;Moscow&#8217;s cannedfood&#8221; in Ukraine, from bloggers to MPs.<\/p>\n\n<p>&#8220;Demoralization, discredit, chaos, unrest, and decline are the main leitmotifs of this information campaign,&#8221; the expert summarized.<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russian authorities have launched a large-scale information operation aimed at discrediting Ukraine&#8217;s top military and political leadership.
