The Topic of Ukrainian Refugees in the Context of Information War
Original language description
The topic of migration has long resonated in public debates in European countries and has also been used by the disinformation scene for its emotinal chargé. This paper traces the experience with disinformation about migrants in Czechia since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, when Czechia received (per capita) the highest number of refugees from Ukraine. The presented development of disinformation narratives is based on a content analysis of eight disinformation websites and thousand "chain e-mails". The presented analysis reveals a high similarity of the communicated narratives to the migration crisis in 2015-2016 and a high complexity of the communicated topics, showing the universality of disinformation narratives for communicating future migration waves. The paper then concludes with several measures that can ultimately mitigate the impact of disinformation campaigns.
