US State Department Exposes Russian Propaganda in Africa
The U.S. Department of State’s Global Engagement Center is exposing Russia’s intelligence services for providing material support and guidance to the Moscow’s African Initiative, a new information agency focused on Africa-Russia relations that has spread disinformation regarding the United States and European countries. According to the Global Engagement Center, African Initiative recruits African journalists, bloggers, and members of local populations to support and amplify the organization’s work of bolstering Russia’s image and denigrating that of other countries. For more on Russia’s disinformation, VOA’s Esther Githui-Ewart spoke to James Rubin, the special envoy and coordinator for the U.S. Department of State’s Global Engagement Center.
