We’re Liz Wahl and Jessikka Aro. We’ve been on the front lines of the information war for nearly a decade. In the courtroom, on the air, online, and at venues around the world, we’ve been exposing conspiracy, extremist, and disinformation movements mobilized by Russia and other authoritarians to break down democracy. This podcast tracks and exposes Russian influence operations against Ukraine and the world's democracies. Understanding Russian disinformation as it wages a full scale war on Ukraine and information war globally is essential to countering it.

Renowned Finnish Intelligence Colonel on the KGB Information Warfare Playbook Russia is Using on Ukraine and the West

Liz and Jessikka speak to a renowned former Finnish intelligence Colonel about the KGB-style psychological tactics of Russia's information warfare currently used against Ukraine and the West. They discuss how culture and language differences can help explain why Russia and the West have completely different world views when it comes to democracy and truth.

Martti J. Kari is a former intelligence Colonel in the Finnish Defense Forces and teaches at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland.
