While fake news and disinformation receive lots of attention nowadays, they are only part of Russia’s hybrid war, which is based on a Soviet secret technique of reflexive control. Using disinformation, cyber attacks, blackmail, provocations, fabrications, military deceptions, and other active measures, Russia creates a virtual reality that prompts its victims into making the political decisions Russia wants without suspecting they are being manipulated. Fake news and disinformation receive most of the attention of western security institutions when it comes to examining Russian meddling in democratic countries. What escapes the attention of many an analyst is that disinformation is only a small part of Russia’s toolbox of hybrid war, one of the manifestations of Active Measures, by which Russia seeks to rebuild its former empire and gain dominance over the West.
