Putin's Top Spokesperson Goes Nuclear On Camera, Claims West Runs 'Global Brainwashing Operation'

At Moscow’s Dialogue on Fakes 3.0 forum, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova warned that Russia could have been “forced out” of the digital space without its own digital sovereignty. She accused Western nations of using generative technologies to manipulate information, spread disinformation, and “reprogramme consciousness.” Zakharova described this as a “special mechanism” for legitimising lies through traditional media. The forum, held on October 29, focused on information security, fact-checking, and the growing clash between digital networks and traditional knowledge.
