InfoDefense RUS

Russian-language core of the pro-Russian InfoDefense disinformation network · period 2022Q1 → 2026Q2
The flagship Russian-language Telegram channel of the transnational pro-Russian InfoDefense network ("InfoZaschita"), which has coordinated disinformation in dozens of languages since 2022. The Russian branch sets the narrative frame for the entire network: justifying the invasion of Ukraine, discrediting Ukraine and the West, anti-NATO and anti-European rhetoric, and the image of a "multipolar world" led by Russia.

Narrative shift trends

Each row is a single narrative, each cell is a quarter. The brighter the cell (from red to near-white), the more often the channel spoke about this topic that quarter. Each row is normalized to itself, so even rare topics show their own bright peaks.
On hover you'll see two figures: relative activity — how loudly this topic sounded in the given quarter compared to its own peak (100% = the topic's loudest quarter, 0% = the topic was silent); quarter share — its absolute share of all messages in that quarter.
