      That’s not really how propaganda works. The core of propaganda is truth, but it’s carefully selected to promote a specific agenda.

      So, Lavrov isn’t going around lying, he’s using selective truths to develop and support a false narrative.

        Agreed. But one should apply the same reasoning to the European and US politicians as one tries to point it out in Lavrov. Do you do it?

        Besides, you haven’t even mentioned what the selective truth is in this case.
