Russian propagandist predicts a bleak future for Europe amidst the disinformation war
Russian propagandist Sergei Mardan, widely known as "Putin's media soldier", surprised the public with his remarks. He stated that in 50 years, European cities will no longer be targets for Russian nuclear missiles because there will be nothing there. He and his ilk are enraged by the Ukrainian attack on the Kursk region.
Many of the reports conveyed by Russian media and government representatives are likely to be false. Such reports may be elements of the Russian Federation's information warfare.
Russian propaganda plays a crucial role in shaping public opinion and manipulating events on the international stage. With an extensive media network and strategic operations, the Kremlin effectively spreads disinformation and controls narratives in various parts of the world.
One of the individuals who staunchly spreads propaganda is Sergei Mardan. His task is to create a narrative to convince the Russian public of the righteousness of the Kremlin's actions.
In his programmes, he often repeats claims that Russia is a victim of the West and Ukraine, which helps to strengthen pro-Russian sentiments in the country.
From his recent remarks, it follows that despite the Russians' problems during the war in Ukraine, in several decades, his country will survive, while other Western countries will face immense difficulties.
In 50 years, European cities will cease to be targets for Russian nuclear missiles, because there will be nothing there. The same Germany or France could very likely turn into something similar to what, let's say, Riga is today. It is a desert without any chance of revival - Mardan said, quoted by Anton Herashchenko.
Mardan is often accused of "playing on emotions" and manipulating facts. In response to a recording from the Machulishchy airport, where a drone was flying over Russian planes, Mardan stated that "he couldn't watch this recording".
Change the video. It pains me, to be honest - the propagandist said. This statement has sparked much controversy, especially in the context of the lack of empathy for the victims of the war in Ukraine.
One thing is certain. As "Putin's media soldier" Mardan plays a key role in disinformation and creating a pro-Russian narrative.
