In this episode of Anatomy of Disinformation, Maia Mazurkeiwicz examines how propaganda, information control, and influence operations have become key tools of the Belarusian regime. Kamil Kłysiński, Senior Fellow at the Centre for Eastern Studies, explains how Belarus uses anti-Western narratives, psychological pressure, and hybrid tactics against neighboring countries while closely coordinating with Russia’s strategic objectives. Maxim Boyko, President of Maladaya Hramada and a Belarusian opposition activist living in exile, shares how propaganda shapes everyday life inside Belarus, how young people consume information, and why the fight for democratic change continues despite years of repression. From state-controlled media and disinformation campaigns to exile communities and digital influence, this episode explores how authoritarian regimes seek to control reality itself and why understanding these mechanisms matters far beyond Belarus.
