MILITARY DOMAIN AS A COMPONENT OF INFORMATION WARFARE

Summary/Abstract: Information warfare is an integral part of the struggle between contemporary nations and alliances, making use of a variety of instruments of asymmetric warfare. The Russian Federation employs this type of approach very effectively to influence the minds of foreign decision-makers and populations in targeted countries. The information domain is equally important for Russia’s own domestic objectives of restoring national pride and integrity, as well as preserving trust in national leadership. Military manoeuvres play an important role in information warfare, provoking fear and uncertainty in other countries, while aiming to convince the Russian population to have faith in the special role their nation holds in the global order.
