Prospects of Consolidation of Ukraine’s Information Space in the Strategy of the Parliamentary Activity of the Political Party «PEOPLE’S FRONT»

Abstract

The national information space in today’s geopolitical conditions is an extremely important area for the realization of state sovereignty. The support and reproduction of such a functional feature of the national information space is an urgent task of the Ukrainian political community, especially in conditions where a part of Ukraine’s territory is temporarily occupied by the Russian Federation. Integration of the information space of Ukraine around the idea of state sovereignty becomes especially important in the context of systematic information attacks and sabotage by the aggressor country that deconsolidate the information space of the Ukrainian state.An extremely important marker in the context of the information war against Ukraine, which was determined by the Ukraine’s integration prospects, the parliamentary faction «PEOPLE’S FRONT», is a marker of the integration of Ukraine’s information space. For the discourse on the integration of Ukraine’s information space, two strategies were identified – the strategy of distinguishing between Russian informational influences and the strategy of consolidating the Ukrainian national information space. The strategy of distinguishing between Russian informational influences and the strategy of consolidating the Ukrainian national information space through which the parliamentary faction «PEOPLE’S FRONT» defined the integration prospects of Ukraine were mutually supportive. Their implementation envisioned not so much internal fractional debates as putting into the agenda of problems that reflected the need for the integration of Ukraine’s information space around state-building ideas and the need to confront Russian aggression in the Crimea and the Donbas.
