THE KEY IDEA
RUSSIAN (DIS-‐)INFORMATION ACTIVITIES ARE VAST, EFFICIENT AND DIVERSIFIED.
IT SHOULD BE ADRESSED WITH COMPLEX MULTILEVEL MEASURES.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Increase actualization and discussion of different types of disinformation. Discussion should be held on different levels and in different forms such as expert opinions, reviews, shows, comic shows etc.
Base disavowal tools and mechanisms on the international standards and stereotypes (schemas) of news information broadcasting and receiving.
Television stays key communication and transmitting tool. TV gives maximum opportunities to influence broad masses and form public opinion. Consequently TV requires maximum attention in terms of disavowal measures.
It is necessary to define targeted audience of Russian (dis-‐) information activities in every country of the research interest. Countermeasures should be contrived according to the defined levels of (dis-‐)information activities
Actualize the fact of Russian disinformation activities’ existence and the importance of the understanding of its existence.
