In social networks, Fiorella Isabel covers the war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine in the light of Kremlin propaganda.

Russia continues to use foreign journalists for propaganda

According to the Centre for Countering Disinformation (CCD), the American journalist Fiorella Isabel (Majorca) has been living in Moscow for a long time. Propaganda media call her an American journalist, but she does not hide that she works for the RT channel.

In social networks, Izabel covers events in the world, in particular in Ukraine and the Middle East, in the light of Kremlin propaganda.

She became a "star" of the Russian propaganda media in 2023 when she started her activities at TOT. At the same time, she spread Kremlin propaganda narratives about the war as "the struggle of the Russian Federation against world evil". She promoted the thesis about the "hand of the United States" in the actions of the Ukrainian government.

In addition, it spreads calls to its English-speaking audience to refuse aid to Ukraine, saying that this is the only way to stop the war.

Russia launched information operation "Perun"

As part of this operation, Russia plans to involve foreign journalists, media persons and bloggers to justify aggression against Ukraine and to cover the situation around Ukraine from positions favourable to the Kremlin.

The American presenter Tucker Carlson conducted his first interview as a Western journalist with Russian President Vladimir Putin. It lasts more than two hours.

Tucker Carlson is an American journalist known for his active pro-Russian position.

He was the host of Fox News's "Tucker Carlson Tonight" from 2016 to 2023 but was fired last April without an official explanation from his employer.

As CNN later stated, "Carlson was the main propagandist of conspiracy theories and radical rhetoric on the channel."
