Misinformation, Disinformation and Mal-Information (MDM)

👉 Disinformation is the false, inaccurate, or misleading information deliberately created, presented and disseminated, whereas “mis-information” is false or inaccurate information that is shared unknowingly and is not disseminated with the intention of deceiving the public. Russian action fits squarely with the definition of disinformation.

👉 Misinformation is incorrect or misleading information. It differs from disinformation, which is deliberately deceptive and propagated information. Rumors are information not attributed to any particular source, and so are unreliable and often unverified, but can turn out to be either true or false.

👉 Mal-Information refers to information that stems from the truth but is often exaggerated in a way that misleads and causes potential harm.

The effects of misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation (MDM) cost the global economy billions of dollars each year. Often known colloquially as “fake news”, MDM are damaging to public trust in institutions and, during elections, may even pose a threat to democracy itself. MDM has become a serious concern for consumers and organizations of all sizes. New technologies such as machine learning, natural language processing, and amplification networks are being used to discredit factual information.

Disinformation campaigns may use artificial intelligence (AI) to spread false and misleading information, such as deepfakes. Deepfakes refer to artificially generated images, audio, and videos used in place of the original image, audio, or video.

When you see all those "russia is not our enemy" and anti-Europe posts flooding your timeline, this is why.

Before engaging, remember that.

The European Union, it’s
- 450 million inhabitants,
- 4 million km²,
- 21 trillion dollars in GDP.

And some would like us to believe we are too small to matter.
Europe is not a small power, it simply does not yet realise it is a superpower. 🇪🇺

Here’s what journalist Yegor Loginov from Radio Liberty says about the Kupiansk operation — the one that threw russian propagandists into chaos yesterday.

The operation was mostly conceived, planned, and is being executed by, in my opinion, one of the most talented Ukrainian officers — Major General Mykhailo Drapatyi, Commander of the Joint Forces Group. With no additional reserves, using only the forces and resources available. Against an enemy that outnumbers them in almost every component. Drapatyi, who in May 2024 was hastily sent to Kharkiv region to stop the russian army’s breakthrough from Vovchansk — and he stopped it. Who led the liberation of Kherson region in 2022. Who decided to resign after an accident at a training ground, taking responsibility for his subordinates’ failure to follow orders (thankfully, it wasn’t accepted).

Unfortunately, so far I haven’t seen his name in any official reports on successes in the Kupiansk direction. It’s as if he doesn’t exist. That’s the sad reality, folks.

For those who wonder. It was not Syrsky, it was Major General Mykhailo Drapatyi who came up, planned and executed the Kupyansk operation.

Just saying.

POKROVSK: More footage has been released of the UKR repulse of a Russian 'assault column’ on the M-30 HWY south of Pokrovsk. On 10 DEC the formation was engaged and broken up by Ukrainian FPVs before it could enter the urban area.

[Roman Sheremeta 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @rshereme]

This is brilliant.

On November 20, russian general Sergey Kuzovlev reports to a russian führer, Putin, that Kupiansk is completely under russian control.

On December 9, Putin awards Kuzovlev for “capturing” Kupiansk.

On December 12, President Zelensky sends greetings to Ukrainian soldiers from Kupiansk.

Sometimes, it feels like russians live in an alternative reality.

[Bricktop_NAFO @Bricktop_NAFO]

🚨🚨🚨President Zelensky has released a very serious video🚨🚨🚨

''Ukrainians! There comes a moment in the life of every nation when everyone needs to talk things through. Honestly. Calmly. Without speculation, rumors, gossip, without anything extra. Just as things are. Just as I’ve always tried to speak to you. Right now is one of the hardest moments in our history. Right now, Ukraine is under some of the heaviest pressure yet. Right now, Ukraine may find itself facing a very tough choice. Either the loss of our dignity or the risk of losing a key partner. Either the difficult 28 points, or an extremely hard winter – the hardest yet – and the dangers that follow. A life without freedom, without dignity, without justice. And that we trust someone who has already attacked us twice. They will expect an answer from us. Though the truth is, I already gave that answer.''

''On May 20, 2019, when taking an oath of loyalty to Ukraine, I notably said: “I, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, elected by the will of the people as President of Ukraine, pledge with all my actions to defend the sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, to uphold the rights and freedoms of its citizens, to abide by the Constitution and the laws of Ukraine, to fulfil my duties in the interests of all my compatriots, and to strengthen Ukraine’s standing in the world.” For me, this is not a protocol formality to check off – it is an oath. And every day, I remain true to every word of it.''

''And I will never betray it. Ukraine’s national interest must be respected. We’re not making loud statements. We will work calmly with the United States and with all our partners. There will be a constructive search for solutions with our main partner. I will lay out the arguments. I will persuade. I will offer alternatives. But one thing is certain: we will not give the enemy reasons to claim that Ukraine doesn’t want peace, that it is sabotaging the process, and that it is Ukraine that is not ready for diplomacy. That will not happen. Ukraine will work fast. Today, on Saturday and Sunday, all next week, and for as long as it takes – 24/7 – I will fight to ensure that, among all the points of the plan, at least two are not overlooked: these are the dignity and freedom of Ukrainians.''

''Because everything else rests on this – our sovereignty, our independence, our land, our people. And Ukraine’s future. We will – and must – do everything so that, as a result, the war ends, but Ukraine does not end, Europe does not end, nor does global peace. I’ve just spoken with Europeans. We count on our European friends who fully understand that Russia is not somewhere far away – it’s right next to the EU’s borders, that Ukraine today is the only shield separating comfortable European life from Putin’s plans. We remember: Europe stood with us.''

''We believe: Europe will stand with us. Ukraine must not live through a déjà vu of February 24, when we felt alone, when no one could stop Russia except our heroic people, who stood like a wall against Putin’s army. And of course it was nice to hear the world say: Ukrainians are incredible; God, how they, Ukrainians, fight; how Ukrainians stand; what titans they are. And it’s true. Absolutely. But Europe and the whole world must also understand another truth: Ukrainians are, first of all, human beings. And for almost four years of full-scale invasion, we have been holding back one of the largest armies on Earth.''

''And we are holding a frontline stretching thousands of kilometers. And our people endure nightly shelling, missile attacks, ballistic missile strikes, and "shahed" strikes. And every day, our people lose their loved ones. And our people desperately want this war to end. Yes, we are made of steel. But any metal, even the strongest, can give way. Remember this. Stay with Ukraine. Stay with our people – and that means stay with dignity and freedom.''

''Dear Ukrainians! Remember that first day of the war. Most of us made our choice. The choice for Ukraine. Recall our feelings back then. What was it like? Dark, loud, heavy, painful. For many – terrifying. But the enemy did not see our backs running away. They saw our eyes – full of resolve to fight for what is ours. That is dignity. That is freedom. And this is truly the most terrifying thing for Russia: seeing the Ukrainians’ unity. Back then, our unity was focused on defending our home from the enemy. And now, we also need unity more than ever, so that there can be a dignified peace in our home. I am addressing all Ukrainians now. Our people, citizens, politicians – everyone. We need to pull ourselves together. Regain our senses.''

''Quit the squabbling. Stop the political games. The state must function. The parliament of a country at war must work in unity. The government of a country at war must work effectively. And all of us together must not forget – and must not confuse – who exactly is the enemy of Ukraine today. I remember how, on the first day of the war, various “messengers” brought me different plans, points; there were ultimatums for ending the war. They said: either this way, or no way. Either you sign it, or you will simply be eliminated and an “acting President of Ukraine” will sign it instead of you. We all know how that ended. Many of those “messengers” later became part of our exchange fund and were sent, together with their proposals and points, back home to their “native harbor.” I did not betray Ukraine then. I truly felt your support behind me – of every single one of you.''

''Of every Ukrainian, every soldier, every volunteer, every medic, diplomat, journalist, our entire nation. We did not betray Ukraine then. We will not betray it now. And I know for certain that in this truly one of the most difficult moments in our history, I am not alone. I know that Ukrainians believe in their state, that we are united. And in every future format of meetings, discussions, negotiations with partners, it will be far easier for me to secure a dignified peace for us and to persuade them, knowing with absolute certainty: the people of Ukraine stand behind me. Millions of our people, people of dignity, people fighting for freedom, and those who have earned peace. All our fallen heroes, who gave their lives for Ukraine, who are now in heaven, and deserve to see from above that their children and grandchildren will live in a dignified peace. And that peace will come. Dignified, effective, long-lasting. Dear Ukrainians! The coming week will be very difficult, full of events.''

''You are a mature, wise, conscious nation that has proven this many times. And you understand there will be enormous pressure this time – political pressure, informational, all kinds. Designed to weaken us. To drive a wedge between us. The enemy never sleeps – and will do everything to make us fail. Will we let them do this? We have no right to. And we won’t. Because those who seek to destroy us don’t know us well. They don’t understand who we truly are, what we’re about, what we stand for, what kind of people we are. There is a reason we mark the Day of Dignity and Freedom as a national holiday. It shows who we are. It shows our values. We will work in the diplomatic arena for our peace. We must act in unity within the country for the sake of our peace. For our dignity. For our freedom. And I believe – and I know – that I am not alone. With me is our nation, our society, our warriors, our partners, our allies, all our people. Dignified. Free. United.''

''Happy Day of Dignity and Freedom. Glory to Ukraine!''

[Kateryna Lisunova @KaterynaLis]

‼️⚡️You were searching for some answers? - here you have it. From the US security council just now:

Ukraine has officially received from the American side a draft plan. We outline the fundamental principles that matter to our people. We agree to work on the plan's provisions in a way that would bring about a just end to the war.

In this context, allow me to make several critical points.
1-First, while Ukraine stands ready to engage in meaningful negotiations to end this war — including at the leaders’ level — our red lines are clear and unwavering. There will never be any recognition, formal or otherwise, of Ukrainian territory temporarily occupied by the Russian Federation as Russian. Our land is not for sale.

Ukraine will not accept any limits on its right to self-defense or on the size and capabilities of our Armed Forces. Nor will we tolerate any infringement on our sovereignty, including our sovereign right to choose the alliances we want to join. Any genuine peace process must respect a fundamental principle: nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine, and nothing about Europe without Europe.

And let me be equally clear: we will not reward the genocidal intent that underpins Russian aggression by undermining our identity, including our language.

2- Second, support for Ukraine is indispensable. Peace requires strengthened security and sustained financial assistance to Ukraine. Reinforcing Ukraine's defense capabilities is not an escalation — it is the only path to compelling Russia to engage constructively in international peace efforts. In this regard, we express profound gratitude to all partners and allies. This support is an investment in the rules-based international order and global peace.

3- Third, the Kremlin regime will not stop unless it is stopped through unyielding and concerted pressure. There is only one realistic path to ending this war: Russia must be compelled to retreat — economically, politically, and militarily.

[Yigal Levin @YigalLevin]

The situation on the front of the Russian-Ukrainian war in 2023 and today - the strategic level.

There is a certain method, one of the first we were taught: for an objective analysis, put yourself in the shoes of a completely external (but competent) observer.

For example, if 50 years from now a Japanese historian — or even better, a Chilean one (Japan, after all, was on Ukraine’s side) — sees this map, a knowledgeable and competent historian, and also sees the figures showing what Russia spent and lost for such “gains,” he will unequivocally call it a military failure, a collapse, an act of glaring incompetence, and national impotence.

Yes, for Ukrainian soldiers who lost their friends, their health, and their nerves in those endless tree lines and villages, this offers no comfort. But the strategic level is not about the soldier; in fact, it is not about people at all.

Strategy and politics are always about big numbers, capacities, processes, potential, and capabilities.

A person, in strategy, is only the sum of sets — a resource. And in military language that is exactly what it is called: human resources.

And yes, attention: I am not going to write disclaimers here with caveats that Ukraine also has everything going badly or even worse. Any Ukrainian already knows and understands this better than you or I do; I show this map to point to something entirely different.

These virtually zero gains, achieved despite more than one million total Russian Armed Forces casualties — several hundred thousand of them killed (these are already documented facts) — along with thousands of destroyed pieces of military equipment, a wrecked Russian economy and finances, and other losses Moscow has suffered, all while Ukraine has: hundreds of thousands of deserters, “teaspoon-per-day” aid from partners, mobilization failures, organizational problems in the army, and so on.

This is what Moscow managed to achieve while fighting the Ukrainian Defense Forces in such conditions.

And what would the picture look like if the situation were improved even slightly: boosted a bit, shut down Russian information-ops, replaced the “help” from partners (especially the Americans) with actual assistance, and fixed at least 20% of the problems with desertion, mobilization, and organization?

Do you think the United States doesn’t understand this (and Europeans as well, though that’s its own story)? They absolutely do. Right now, with the situation exactly as you see it on the map, they are pressuring Ukraine into an agreement that is close in form and substance to a capitulation.

They pressure not because Ukraine is weak. If it were weak, you would be looking at a completely different map. They pressure because Russia is catastrophically weak and incompetent.

That is the essence of this pressure: at Ukraine’s expense, so that Ukrainians pay for Russian stupidity and bloody idiocy.

It seems to me that this is precisely what Kyiv’s diplomats will need to point out this week in their negotiations with the US and Europe.

Not in the sense of “look, Russia is weak, let’s finish it off” — no one planned or plans to finish Russia off (on the contrary). But in the sense of: we understand everything, thank you, but do not take us for fools.

That is the core. Everything else is dust.
