The number of conflict situations between nationalities and sects in Russia has decreased, said The head of the Federal Agency for Nationalities, Igor Barinov, in an interview with the Parliamentary Gazette.
According to him, after the beginning of the military conflict in Ukraine, the department noted a growing influence of information from abroad, aimed at destabilizing the situation inside Russia.
“In the first month of CBO, relevant indicators increased by one and a half times. For the whole of 2022, the news bulletins determined about the negative impact of the external information effect constituted more than 42 percent of the total number of the news bulletins determined in the field of ethnic and interfaith relations. Foreign influence growth, which increased by 56 percent in 4 months compared to the same period of 2022, continued in 2023.
But these attempts to destabilize the situation “find a weak response in Russian society,” according to the expert. He noted that the data of the monitoring system showed a decrease in the number of situations of ethnic and inter-religious conflict.
“Taking into account the results of sociological research, it is fair to talk about the recovery and support of the vast majority of Russians for the implementation of the NWO. A small layer of dissatisfied people trying to oppose our army and our state is quickly marginalized, ”said Barinov.
