Answer:

ok

Step-by-step explanation:

Propaganda is used by governments to essentially shield their population from what is going on outside of their own country. It is also used to help "unite" a country for a cause, without actually telling the people 100% of what is going on. What is happening in Russia with the iron curtain is an amazing example for this. Putin does not want the people of Russia to see how destructive his actions are, so he holds arenas full of people to tell them all of the "good work" they have done, so the people of Russia are still on his side. Propaganda is also used to try and mentally fight the enemy. Russian hackers had sent propaganda to Ukrainian soldiers that had essentially played a deep fake video of President Zaleski saying that Ukraine had given up, and they all the soldiers should surrender, even though that was far from the truth.
