Has Russian disinformation already affected the run in Poland?
– It's a small early for something like this to be noticed. Typically, disinformation operations of this kind, which are intended to influence elections, take place in fresh weeks, primarily in the last month, which is the last 4 weeks before the elections and are expanding 2 weeks before the elections. These are the most delicate moments, so at the minute it is simply a small early in Poland, so that specified campaigns will take place to be visible – Anna Mierzyńska says in an interview with Jacek Pałasiński.
– Of course, the Russian disinformation, due to the fact that we mostly talk about it, the Russian disinformation is inactive there, all the time in the infosphere is visible, but it is not yet specifically geared to presidential elections, so it seems, especially as we compare it with Germany now – adds the analyst.
What will the presidential run in Poland look like? How susceptible are we to misinformation? And did the Polish government halt utilizing private email boxes, as happened in the erstwhile power?
Jacek Palasiński and his guest house, Anna Mierzyńska, talk about all this.
