Prokremelských webů denně šířících na českém internetu dezinformace je mnoho. Jejich kvalita, publikační činnost i návštěvnost se značně liší, většina z nich však zatím stále zdaleka nedosahuje úrovně seriózních zpravodajských webů, což je rozhodně dobrá zpráva. Značně znepokojující ovšem je, když se texty vydávané těmito často bizarními weby objeví na facebookových profilech českých politických představitelů. Přitom právě tito lidé by měli cítit skutečnou odpovědnost za to, jaké informace svým voličům a fanouškům poskytují, ať už přímo nebo prostřednictvím sociálních sítí.Read More

The High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Federica Mogherini, fulfilled its commitment at the June European Council meeting introducing a new European Union foreign policy strategy- an estimated thirteen years after the Solana´s European Security Strategy.

But the new European Values strategy is too abstract and provides minimum specific guidelines. Challenges and threats are not classified and their definitions are often vague. The main downside of the document is its excessive idyllic nature and ambiguity. Document is missing further characterization and development of concepts such as strategic communication, durability, and integrated approaches to conflict or EU-NATO cooperation.

Among its positive aspects is the explicit naming of Russian aggression in the Crimea including strategic communication as a tool of war against disinformation and fulfilment of international commitments vis-a-vis Sustainable Development Goals and/or development aid. Despite all expectations, the Global strategy is a product whose added value can be effectively doubted. Please read below our complete evaluation.
