#Russian propaganda

The Russian Orthodox Church is spreading across Africa under the guise of “protecting the continent from colonialism,” helping Moscow quietly extend its own political, economic, and military influence.

Despite bans across Europe, the US, and Canada, Russia’s state-funded network RT is far from gone. The Kremlin’s favorite media weapon has morphed into a hybrid propaganda machine—streaming through smaller platforms, partner outlets, and social media ecosystems that still reach millions. Data reviewed by UNITED24 Media shows how RT adapted its playbook after 2022, turning sanctions into an opportunity to rebrand and retarget new audiences.
