On July 13, Brussels will host the presentation of Hybrid Warfare à la Russe by Yuriy Fedorov, expert in Russian foreign and military policy.

Representatives of the Ukrainian Center for Army, Conversion and Disarmament Studies will present the analysis of Russian warfare methods.

The second section deals with Moscow’s support of right-wing, ultranationalist and extremist organizations in Europe, how they are funded and used in the West.

The third section of the book is devoted to the description of Russia’s propaganda machine and the main arguments of Russian propaganda spread by “friends of Putin” in Europe.
