Migrants, prices, and the war in Ukraine. Russia is conducting operation 'Doppelgänger'

The operation, launched in 2022, involved creating fake websites and manipulated media to spread disinformation targeting politicians and social media influencers. Reports highlighted false claims about Ukrainian officials and misinformation regarding the Paris Olympics. The campaign, overseen by the Agency for Social Design, aimed to exploit sensitive topics like migration and public safety to weaken support for Ukraine. It involved former Russian officials and aimed to discredit President Zelensky by spreading corruption allegations. The operation extended beyond digital platforms, influencing elections and engaging in provocations in Western Europe.
