Ukraine called on the United Nations (UN) to respond to the Russian propaganda. This statement was made first Secretary of the permanent mission of Ukraine to the UN Oleg Nikolenko.
“We are deeply concerned about the massive campaign of propaganda and incitement of hatred of Ukraine and Ukrainians, the Russian state media and public figures. It played an important role in fueling the aggression of Russia against Ukraine and the conflict in the Donbass”, – Nikolenko told.
He said that the Russian government has significantly limited the space for independent media, tightened control over the state media, turning them into instruments of state propaganda.
“This hybrid war against Ukraine with the involvement of state-controlled Russian media is a direct threat to the values of the UN. The Committee and other UN bodies must react to such attempts of falsification of the news and use them as tool of deepening of regional conflicts,” said Olga Nicolenco.
