Attributing “high treason” to the President’s inner circle to incite internal conflicts

What it claims

Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s inner circle is accused of intentionally leaking the coordinates of Ukrainian warehouses to the enemy to discredit political opponents. This manipulation portrays internal political struggles as the cause of successful Russian strikes on logistics and rising prices.

Target audience

Examples (paraphrased)

We paraphrase rather than quote: propaganda's exact wording is built to spread, so we carry the claim and not the craft. Each example cites the post it came from.

• Those close to Zelenskyy are embezzling 80% of the defense budget and passing the coordinates of UAF warehouses to Russia to frame the former defense minister.

• Zelenskyy illegally appointed a new defense minister who is ready to send people to the front without any checks, which will lead to the destruction of the nation.

Goal

To provoke a split in the military-political leadership and undermine public trust in state institutions during the war.

Techniques used

• Loaded LanguageUsing terms like “leaking coordinates,” “sawing the budget,” “busification,” and “pocket general” to demonize the authorities.
• Causal OversimplificationExplaining the success of enemy attacks solely through internal “leaks” and political intrigue, ignoring military factors.

The real grievance it exploits

The vulnerability of civilian infrastructure to missile strikes and economic hardships caused by rising prices for essential goods.

How to counter

• Technique exposure: This narrative uses the “internal enemy” tactic to shift responsibility for Russia's war crimes onto the Ukrainian leadership and sow panic among the population.
