The International Media Forum ”Truth Against Neo-Fascism” organized by the CPRF was held in Moscow on 6-7 November 2025. It was attended by delegations from more than 40 countries of Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America.
Such massive representation of experts in propaganda and agitation media attests to the growing concern with the threat of resurgence of the Fascist and Neo-Nazi ideology in many countries.
In light of the attempts of world capital to establish its information dictatorship the task of the Forum was joint analysis of the current situation in the global information space, assessment of the prospects of joint work to counteract Western propaganda in the media space, exchange of practical experience of work in the national media and social networks as well as discussion of the prospects of creating an information and communication center which would unify the media resources of all the left-wing patriotic forces.
The central event of the Forum was the International Conference during which the participants discussed methods of information work, the tactics of counteracting lies and the means of information exchange between the participants.
During the exchange of opinions the delegates established new contacts, evaluated the media resources of the left-wing forces and their potential to take part in creating mechanisms of coordinating information policy.
The idea of creating a common system of left-wing patriotic propaganda and counter-propaganda put forward by the CPRF met with absolute support of the Forum participants.
The common opinion is that the main weapon in the ideological struggle against Western propaganda should be solidarity of the world left-wing movement and the creation of a single information system of the left-wing forces.
The delegates unanimously agreed that the common system of propaganda and counter—propaganda should be built on a common ideological foundation only through joint effort.
The Forum participants noted that the growing economic and political potential of the Global South countries adds many new voices to the world information space. Gone is the era when the Western countries could mislead the world community with impunity. Even so, many countries still depend on Western information. A significant segment of the population in various countries still believes the Western media and mistrusts their own press. In this connection it is necessary to step up exchange of information so that the ideas of the supporters of socialism be heard not only inside our own countries but are widely disseminated abroad, especially in the developing states.
The Media Forum was a logical sequel to the two earlier International Anti-Fascist Forums held in Minsk and Moscow on the initiative of the CPRF. A start has been given to the practical implementation of the program of information counteraction to Western propaganda involving the media resources of all the left-wing forces which support the struggle for clean and objective information.
