Information Defence: Analytical Review of the Situation during the Last Week (May 15-22, 2022) - Ihor Zhdanov

Ihor Zhdanov, Information Defence Project, the Open Policy Foundation

With the beginning of russia's unprovoked aggression against Ukraine, the experts of the Open Policy Foundation  together with other leading Ukrainian analysts joined a united team to implement the Information Defence of Ukraine project.

The project experts prepared daily reviews of the military-political situation in Ukraine in Ukrainian, English, and Russian, the first of which was published on February 26th, moderated the Telegram channel “Information Defence of Ukraine”, https://t.me/info_defense_ua. All experts of the Information Defence of Ukraine project work free of charge, on a volunteer basis. 

At the same time, after almost three months of daily work, now the Information Defence for various reasons, subjective and objective, is in the process of transformation.

Some experts have left it, some cannot work in this mode as previously. The problem of funding to support the project is acute, which we are trying to attract through the donors’ support and charitable donations.

Because of internal team discussions, we decided to offer another format of our product - a weekly analytical review of the events in Ukraine and abroad.

Below we offer the first of them - an analytical review of the situation during the last week (May 15-22, 2022).
