Rubryka was proud to be an information partner of the Lviv Media Forum (LMF) 2025, the largest annual media event in Ukraine and Eastern Europe.

As a follow-up to our LMF partnership, we spoke with Dr. Ilana Bet-El, a senior strategist, historian, writer, and former UN peacekeeper. She's an expert on European security and the host of a Women Leaders podcast.

In this episode, she joins host Oleksandra Voronina to discuss:

• How the Kremlin uses corruption narratives in its propaganda
• The role of history and memory in Russian disinformation
• What the EU is (and isn't) doing to prepare for defense
• Why women must be at the table in diplomacy and security

Show notes:

The study mentioned in the episode is Detection and Analysis of Russian Information Threats on the Topic of Corruption in the Ukrainian Media Space, which was supported by Solvo Partners, a strategic advisory service.

Sestry.eu, a Polish–Ukrainian media and cross-border newsroom, has taken on the task of building trust, dialogue, and partnership between Poland and Ukraine.

Rubryka’s Oleksandra Voronina sat down with Joanna Mosiej-Sitek, a journalist, media expert, and editor-in-chief of Sestry, to discuss why Polish–Ukrainian cooperation is so vital and how journalists can become a force for solidarity and support, especially in times of war.
