Latvia Weekly: Zelensky and Istanbul Convention

In the examined week, there was significantly lower activity in the disinformation channels examined. Similarly as last week,  central topics are corruption and the Istanbul Convention. As seen in prior weeks, there is more activity in X which has also started to gain engagement. Nevertheless, the form of the content that reaches the highest engagement remains to be in video format and is reached in Tiktok or Facebook platforms.
