With a direct message, the INC addresses Russian citizens through a video in which they are asked if they are leading the life they want to lead, or if it is the path they want to follow.

Thus, he seeks to attract the attention of all russians dissatisfied with the life of ostracism and repression they lead in Russia. In a movie format they try to put themselves in their shoes with phrases like “easily we let ourselves be influenced by lies. But we know what our reality is. The reality we live in and the reality we whisper about.”

They use a woman and a man as protagonists, both Russian citizens working for the government. And although they do not mention the war in Ukraine or Putin, they appeal to Russian patriotism like this: “I am going to live the real life. This is my Russia. This will always be my Russia.”

In their own language, Russian, they let them know they are aware of what they are going through with forceful statements: “It is possible that the people around you They don’t want to hear the truth. We do.”

The sole purpose of the video is recruit them as spies. The CIA believes it is a historic opportunity to recruit new members, thanks to the internal division generated by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It also assures them that they can join safely and without losing their anonymity. But the shape and the channel draw attention, first through Telegram, and then in the rest of the social networks, about how they intend to look for new Russian spies.

Yago Rodriguez, director of ‘The Political Room’, explained in ‘Al Rojo Vivo’, “that it is a way of how, through an apparent intelligence operation, to introduce a message into the Russian public opinion“. But he declares that “when someone makes initiatives of this type in which anyone can volunteer, what usually happens is that the enemy intelligence service floods you with volunteers.”
