This isn’t just a story about fuel.

It’s about how pressure on one part of an economy can ripple through many others.

Agriculture depends on diesel at almost every stage: harvesting, transporting grain, operating machinery and moving crops to storage or export.

[Jay in Kyiv @JayinKyiv]

Russia's fuel crisis is now triggering an agricultural crisis, as grain is ripening and falling tk the ground while farmers have no diesel with which to operate harvesting equipment.

In cases where farmers can afford diesel, the high prices make it unprofitable to harvest grain that itself is falling in price.

To fully grasp the impact decades worth of relentless Kremlin propaganda can have, when presented with a pictorial measure of dehumanization, 42.94% of the surveyed Russian soldiers considered Ukrainians not to be fully human, estimating them to be only 88% as evolved.

[EUvsDisinfo @EUvsDisinfo]

In a study of more than 1,000 Russian prisoners of war conducted by the non-governmental group LingvaLexa and the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine, 76% of soldiers believed at least one Kremlin propaganda narrative to some extent, and 68% perceived the ‘Special Military Operation’ as necessary.

JUST IN: Suspected Russian spy arrested in Berlin. The Kazakh national is alleged to have spied for Russia. Among other things, he is accused of passing on information regarding German military aid to Ukraine as well as the arms and defense industry. The suspect is also suspected of passing on photos of public buildings in the German capital and of military convoys on highways, including a convoy from a NATO member state.

The full force of Russian FIMI is now being deployed against Armenia ahead of its parliamentary elections, largely recycling the same narratives used in Moldova, with attacks on Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan almost perfectly mirroring those previously directed at Maia Sandu.

(Russian) narratives are seeded months, even years, in advance.

[EUvsDisinfo @EUvsDisinfo]

Remember: Russia’s election interference playbook begins long before voters go to the polls. 

Recent analysis shows narratives are seeded months, even years, in advance: attacking governments, questioning alliances, and framing cooperation with the EU as “foreign control.”

China 🇨🇳 with their hooks into occupied Ukraine 🇺🇦.

China is rebuilding how occupied Ukrainian territories function — step by step.

It installs 6,000 Huawei base stations, replaces dollars with yuan, and keeps factories running with Chinese engineers. no ownership, no formal role, but everything depends on Chinese tech, Babel. 1/
