Abstract
This article examines the coverage of the first few weeks of the invasion of Ukraine by Russian TV in the evening news program, Vremya ( Time) on the Russian prostate Channel One. The purpose of the study was to find out how Russia's main news program built its agenda and what its message was for the audience. For this, the study conducted a content analysis of the news, measuring the type, frequency and duration of topics, sources and points of view, specific narratives, and tone. The results of the analysis showed that television news was a part of the state's information policy to clarify the goals and objectives of the invasion and to promote the psychological mobilization of society around the political leadership, in the face of the West's unconditional support for Ukraine.
