Nobody Cheers for Goliath: How Ukraine Is Winning the Information War Against Russia

The physical battle of tanks and bombs or territory gained and lost is only one terrible part of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin's war against the people of Ukraine. The unprovoked war is also taking place in the media, on computer keyboards, and in the hearts and mind of people in Ukraine, in Russia, and worldwide. Just as Ukraine has won important battlefield successes in the face of what appeared to be an overwhelming Russian force, Ukraine has also waged a highly sophisticated public diplomacy campaign to counter what many thought was a Russian strength. Dr. Nicholas J. Cull, a pioneering scholar and educator in the field of public diplomacy and mass communication in foreign policy, joins Helsinki on the Hill to examine the fight over narratives around Russia's unprovoked war against Ukraine, how it shapes how different audiences understand the war, and the ultimate real-world impact of information warfare.
