Descriptions

Propagandist and a manager of online propaganda media projects for the past two decades. She has been involved in organizing propaganda campaigns, receiving money directly from officials in the Presidential Administration of Russia and individuals close to them, and distributing these funds to pay bloggers and other prominent figures to promote the pro-Kremlin narrative, including narratives associated with aggression against Ukraine. She has also been involved in organizing networks of pro-government bots and promoting propaganda through media channels. For these activities, she was awarded the 1st class Order For Merit to the Fatherland.
