Quote: "[Our] analysis of the information field of the [temporarily occupied territories] of Zaporizhzhia Oblast indicates that a deliberate campaign aimed at imposing Russian identity on the local population and forcing them to integrate into the socio-cultural space of the Russian Federation is being unrolled.

Yevgeny Barinov, head of the Federal Agency for Ethnic Affairs of the Russian Federation, announced the opening of a network of the agency’s offices on the [temporarily occupied territories] of Zaporizhzhia Oblast with the aim of ‘strengthening Russian identity and international unity in regions that have only recently been freed from the oppression of Ukrainian propaganda’."

Details: The newly established offices of the Russian Federal Agency for Ethnic Affairs in Zaporizhzhia Oblast will focus on fostering the cooperation of local residents with Russian public organisations, the creation of "educational" programmes, and the implementation of "humanitarian programmes".
