The publication notes that the Kremlin uses state-owned media, as well as fake news sites and social media accounts, to promote narratives that cause controversy in American society.

For example, they distributed a fake video of "Ukrainian soldiers" burning an effigy of Trump. In other videos, the Armed Forces of Ukraine allegedly shoot at a mannequin with a red hat with the inscription "let's Make America Great Again", burn the books of the newly elected president and call him a coward. Several researchers denied the video, noticing signs of digital manipulation.

The publication writes that a few weeks after the election, the videos spread far beyond the borders of Ukraine and Russia, circulating among Trump supporters and supporters of the QAnon conspiracy theory.

Analysts say the content, translated into English for an American audience, is intended to reverse sentiment against Ukraine at a tipping point in hopes of reducing U.S. military aid and ensuring Russia's victory.

By discouraging U.S. support for Ukraine, the Kremlin hopes to shut down the most important source of military aid that has supported Ukrainian hopes since Russia's February 2022 invasion.,
