For centuries, russia has been actively spreading propaganda both internally and worldwide. Propaganda related to Ukraine preceded the annexation of the Donbas and of Crimea in 2014, and has grown exponentially since then. On February 24, 2022, russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Through fake narratives and distorted history, russian propaganda is used to justify the war, its war crimes, its genocide, and its rabid imperialist behavior.
In this podcast, Yulia – an independent political journalist, content creator, and, most importantly of all, a concerned Ukrainian citizen – debunks common misconceptions and answers your most frequently asked questions about Ukraine.

Episode Summary
You've probably heard of the one of the most elite brigades of the National Guard of Ukraine. Maybe you've heard of their bravery, or maybe you've seen the fear they inspire in the russian armed forces. Maybe you've heard the russian propaganda about them.
The guest of today's episode, Vladyslav Zhaivoronok, callsign Wikipedia, of the former Azov Regiment (now Azov Assault Brigade), is a serviceman of the National Guard of Ukraine, a Mariupol defender, an Azovstal defender, and formerly a Russian POW.
We're going to do our episode a little bit differently. Instead of debunking fakes, we are going to introduce you to an average guy who decided to quit his job and join Azov. And hopefully, you can make your own conclusions from there.
