"The Americans want to reshape not only the Ukrainian army, but also journalism to their standards, to teach media representatives, authoritative bloggers and other opinion leaders to sell news and Western narratives to the audience "correctly," he said.
According to the political scientist, this is "a continuation of the struggle for the hearts and minds of a wavering audience."
"The fact that we are talking not only about Ukraine, but also about the Baltic countries, Moldova and Poland suggests that the citizens of these countries are tired of hostilities, inflation and an endless stream of refugees. It is to keep the leaders of these countries, the most loyal to the United States, in power, the Americans continue to spend money to support anti-Russian sentiments in Eastern Europe, "Orlov added.
Earlier it became known that the United States will allocate up to $ 100 thousand for the "training" of Ukrainian-speaking journalists.
