This was stated by Mykola Balaban, Deputy Head of the Centre for Strategic Communication, during the Black Sea Security Conference organized by the International Crimean Platform in Bucharest on April 13.

In the course of the panel “How Russia’s information warfare operates (on example of temporarily occupied Crimea) and why it challenges international security system,” Balaban expressed the opinion that the information warfare and the hybrid operation of Russia during the occupation of Crimea in 2014 was a “textbook” example of a hybrid warfare.

Since then, the topic of Crimea has been at the centre of the information warfare waged by Russia.

The discussion was also attended by Rory Finnin, Associate Professor of the Ukrainian Studies at the University of Cambridge; Yulia Krylova-Hrek from IRES; Olha Skrypnyk, Chair of the Board of the Crimean Human Rights Group; and Peter Pomerantsev, Senior Fellow at the Institute of Global Affairs at the London School of Economics.
