Rennie Westcott, senior intelligence analyst at Blackbird.AI, which tracks disinformation and misinformation efforts online, said that Russia has been using Telegram channels to spread “pro-Russian narratives,” efforts that have ramped up this week ahead of the Oct. 20 elections.
“There’s been an evolution to be more closely aligned with more pro-Russian narratives, and it’s a mask-off situation, the veil is dropped, there is clear-cut support for Russia,” Westcott said of the most recent developments linked to Russia on those Telegram channels.
