The visit of American blogger Laura Loomer to Ukraine has become further evidence that witnessing the reality helps people break free from the influence of Russian propaganda, according to Ukraine’s Presidential Office.
The Presidential Office said Loomer’s visit allows her to witness the consequences of Russia’s aggression with her own eyes and form her own opinion about what is happening.
"It is very important that Laura Loomer is in Ukraine and can see firsthand what is happening here," the statement said.
The Presidential Office added that firsthand experience is the most effective way to counter disinformation and Russian propaganda.
"There is no better way to gain an informed view than through personal experience, which allows people to resist Russian propaganda," the Presidential Office said.
A day earlier, Laura Loomer arrived in Ukraine.
Later, the blogger said she had been wrong in her previous remarks about Ukraine because she had been influenced by Russian propaganda.
