In Russia, President Vladimir Putin’s government keeps a tight grip on information, has banned journalists from calling its war in Ukraine a “war,” and largely controls what Russians see and hear of the conflict via domestic media, as TV Rain’s Ekaterina Kotrikadze detailed to Fareed on Sunday’s GPS.

But outside of Russia, Putin is “losing” the broader propaganda war “comprehensively,” due in part to unfiltered reports streaming out of Ukraine, writes The Atlantic Council’s Anders Åslund. The courage, media savvy, and charisma of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky have had a lot to do with it, Frida Ghitis writes for CNN.
