The level of awareness of regional youth about the progress of Special Military Operation

Abstract

In the tense conditions associated with the continuation of hostilities in Ukraine, partial mobilization and increasing tension in relations with the collective West, one of the urgent problems is the attitude of the younger generation to a Special Military Operation, as this is the future foundation of our country.

After the start of its operation, the Ukrainian special services intensified information stuffing, the West systematically heated up the situation and scaled the wave of fakes. Due to the lack of information hygiene, young Russians received unreliable and dangerous information that contributed to the split of the country and the growth of a wave of dissatisfaction with the actions of the authorities.

As part of the study of the level of awareness about the course and goals of the SVO of modern youth, the authors conducted sociological studies aimed at analyzing the dynamics of attitudes towards conducting a special military operation, the level of patriotism and their forecasts regarding its completion.

According to the results of the author's sociological analysis, it was determined that Russian youth began to understand that a special operation in Ukraine was a necessary step, and more and more young people in the country began to trust the decisions of the authorities. During the anti-Russian events, the youth's idea of a safe world was destroyed and now they understand that Russia is opposed not by Ukraine, but by the entire collective West. Today, Russian youth perceive the actions of foreign politicians and cultural figures as a threat to national and cultural identity and consolidation of Russian society.
