Russian propaganda is changing, just like the USA
In these extraordinary times, it is remarkable that even the old propagandists of the Kremlin change their attitude. In the state-controlled Russian media were derogatory comments about the" collective west "and the" Anglo-Saxons "-a glazed diplomatic code for the states led by the USA- Leaved as a tacit way. Instead, Europe is now being criticized as a "old world" until recently in the USA.
The new narrative of the Russian media
In his popular news program, Dmitry Kisylov, a prominent spokesman for the state, once bragged that Russia could reduce the united states to a smoking pile of radioactive ash Troika "that dominates the world: china , Russia and the USA.
Criticism of the European War Party
Kisylov explains to its millions of viewers in Russia: "Now the European War Party wants to further escalate the conflict in Ukraine." He continues: "If we present it simplified, the great troika - Russia, China and the USA - now decide on the new structure of the world. The European Union is no longer a political force."
US politics and their effects on Ukraine
This dark vision is already shown on the battlefields of Ukraine, where the Trump administration, which is determined to end the bloodshed, exerts pressure on the attacked Kiev. US President Donald Trump made breathtaking concessions to the western alliance to the Kremlin, most recently the suspension of the US military aid for Ukraine -to the delight of the Kremlin. Trump has also rejected the idea of future NATO membership for the country, which has been fighting against a comprehensive Russian invasion since February 2022.
the departure from the traditional diplomatic approach
By unilaterally initiating talks with Russia across the heads of Ukraine and Europe, Trump has started a controversial process to get Moscow out of diplomatic isolation and to undermine the unit between Washington's traditional allies. These are both long -term goals of the Kremlin.
The effect on Russian perception
Trumps public humiliation Delighted by President Selenskyj during a recent visit to the white house Many Russians how profound US policy has changed. Occasionally the state media had difficulty explaining the shocking events.
The Russian image and the responsibility of the USA
In Russia, the strongly controlled media landscape reflects the mood of the Kremlin, as well as the words of Russian officials who are now strengthening the US European differences. Sergey Lavrov, the experienced Russian Foreign Minister, emphasized: "I don't want to be anti-European. But all tragedies in the world come from Europe or were due to European politics."
conclusion
Although there are many compliments, it remains unclear what the United States received in return for the geopolitical change of course from Washington from Russia. A Russian official admitted to me privately that the economic cooperation agreements discussed behind closed doors could have been tempting for the United States. "Trump is like Superman and our president found his weakness," said a Russian commentator.
The Kremlin propagandists seem to be happy about the changes. Their melodies may have changed, but America has also adapted its tones.
