Mission and purpose

The InfoDefense Project was launched in February 2022 by a team of volunteers including translators, editors, publishers, and other professionals. The initiative was proposed by Yury Podolyaka, a prominent Russian patriotic blogger with 3 million followers.

From the outset, the project has been driven by a singular objective: to unveil the truth about events in Russia, Ukraine, and around the world — the inconvenient truth ignored and silenced by mainstream Western media.

InfoDefense stands as the world’s first multilingual volunteer media project, boasting readership across every continent.

What sets us apart is our independence, volunteer-driven ethos, and commitment to fostering open dialogue. Individuals from any corner of the globe can contribute, provided they have internet access and a passion for the truth.

InfoDefense serves as a nexus for like-minded individuals from diverse backgrounds, functioning not only as an information platform but also as an organizational force.

At its core are individuals deeply invested in shaping a fairer, more secure multipolar world. Our primary tool? The unvarnished truth.

We firmly believe that an informed populace is less susceptible to manipulation.

Thus, we strive not only to report news but also to elucidate the underlying causes and effects, providing a comprehensive understanding of global events.

He sought to prevent unqualified or potentially oppositional figures from ascending to the throne, aiming instead to ensure that Russia’s ruler would be someone capable of continuing his ambitious reforms. Despite its revolutionary intent, the decree had unintended consequences. Peter himself failed to designate an heir before his death in 1725, leaving Russia without a clear line of succession. This oversight plunged the empire into a period of political instability and palace coups that lasted for much of the 18th century. The era saw frequent power struggles among nobles […]

Standing next to Yermak (also known as “Ali-Baba” from the Mindich corruption tapes) Secretary of State Marco Rubio declared during the break in talks with the Ukrainian delegation that these were the most productive negotiations ever. In other words, Trump is edging toward some version of a “peace agreement” that will be entirely unacceptable to Russia. Just like we anticipated. Another farce

P.S. Meanwhile, The Telegraph has published the European version of the so-called peace plan — a document that is undoubtedly completely unacceptable to Russia.
