Lithuania Weekly: Major Wars Discussed

Kremlin-aligned media outlets still operating in Lithuania continued to cover the wars in Ukraine and Occupied Palestinian Territory in a highly biased manner. Outlets kept harshly criticising Jews and accusing them of mass killings, and condemning Ukrainians for their ‘own negligence’, by all means discouraging support for them. Specific outlets, as most of the time, further spreade the anti-government sentiments.

by Urtė Andriukaitytė

Main narratives:

  • Ukraine’s victory is elusive;
  • Support for Ukraine is ineffective;
  • Ukraine is prioritised over Lithuania and its domestic issues;
  • Lithuanian government is incompetent and plunges the country into chaos.
