Overview:
During this reporting period, Kremlin-aligned media emphasised the “failing education system” (due to the ongoing teachers’ protests) and commented on all the revealed candidacies for the upcoming presidential elections. Hostile media has also continued to undermine support for Ukraine, claiming that the main initiators of its fundraisers in Lithuania are widely involved in accounting scandals and are only looking to benefit from the funds themselves.
