In this powerful keynote lecture at the Sofia Information Integrity Forum 2024 (#SIIF2024), renowned Russia expert Mark Galeotti explores the evolution of Russia's hybrid warfare tactics. From disinformation to direct sabotage, Galeotti unpacks how the Kremlin strategically employs disruption to weaken Western democracies and exploit their vulnerabilities. He provides valuable insights into the broader context of political warfare, the role of media manipulation, and the "weaponization of inconvenience."
