Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>The war in Ukraine is a major eye opener for the world and people in general on the insidious role of government propaganda and a compliant media in shaping the tenor and thrust of narratives regarding the evolution of the war.<\/p>\n

It has also exposed a skewed international order sullied and undermined by double standards in respect of fundamental principles and basic standards of equity.<\/p>\n

It also shows how daily spin doctoring and propaganda repeatedly rehashed and recycled by the media and political leaders can systematically mask and occult the truth.<\/p>\n

The profound divide over the war between the US, Europe, NATO countries, Ukraine and Russia has polarized information about the war. In this propaganda battle, the United States, EU and NATO countries and their media have a major control over the information disseminated in the world.<\/p>\n
