The research and analytical group InfoLight.UA<\/a><\/strong> presented the results of monitoring the use of statements by Ukrainian public figures by Russian propaganda. The researchers analyzed more than 500 thousand news items from Russian media. <\/p>\n\n

According to the study, in the first half of December, Artem Dmytruk, Oleksandr Dubinsky, Andriy Yermak, Maryana Bezuhla and Diana Panchenko were the most quoted. Their statements were actively used for manipulation. <\/p>\n\n

Presenting the results of the study, Yuriy Goncharenko, head of the InfoLight.UA Research and Analysis Group, noted that after the publication of the first study, analysts noted that some Ukrainian public figures had significantly reduced the number of statements used by Russian propaganda.<\/p>\n\n

“Another characteristic feature of the Russian information and propaganda space is the deliberate disregard for Ukrainian military or politicians whose activities seem dangerous to the enemy. For example, Kirill Budanov is virtually absent from the Russian media. Oleksandr Syrsky appears very rarely, generally less than, for example, his public opponent Mariana Bezuhla. Similarly, for Russians, there are no events related to the success of the GUR,”<\/em><\/strong>he said.<\/p>\n\n

“What has been done is a good example of the down-to-earth, concrete work of analysts for the benefit of a common cause. Not flying somewhere in the sky with deeply thoughtful theses, but something that already gives food for real counteraction to the enemy,”<\/em><\/strong> Yusov noted.<\/p>\n\n

The study was conducted by by the research and analytical group InfoLight.UA<\/a><\/strong> by monitoring the 5 most visited Russian websites and 100 other sources using the Osavul platform. More than 500,000 news items were analyzed, including those where statements by Ukrainian public figures became newsworthy. Manipulation was assessed by taking quotes out of context, distortion, neutral presentation, or even rare positive coverage. <\/p>\n\n
