Following research into pro-Russian online propaganda in Europe, News Insight focused on Poland, identifying a network of Polish websites promoting Kremlin narratives and demonizing Ukraine, the EU, and the West.
These sites routinely link to sanctioned Russian propaganda platforms like Sputnik and RT, cite their content, and spread manipulative narratives. In turn, Russian media reference these Polish outlets to create the illusion of local support for Russia’s war against Ukraine.
Key Findings:
- Interconnected network: Citation and content analysis reveal strong links between these websites and Russian propaganda platforms.
- Pro-Kremlin narratives: The websites blame NATO and the U.S. for the war, justify Russia’s invasion, and depict Ukraine as a puppet state.
- Anti-Ukrainian & Conspiratorial content: Many articles spread hate speech against Ukrainians, push false claims about Nazi rule, and even promote anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.
- Influence on public opinion: The dominant narratives suggest an effort to manipulate Polish audiences and undermine support for Ukraine.
