Краткое описание

Russian journalist and media manager. Helped destroy independent media in Russia when he was appointed the new editor-in-chief of the previously popular independent Lenta.ru in 2014 .

Russian propagandist; journalist and media manager; head of the Institute for Internet Development (IID), an organization specializing in state propaganda. Under his leadership, the IID has effectively functioned as the central production and distribution hub for state propaganda and ideological content within the Russian segment of the internet. According to journalistic investigations, the organization is one of the principal administrators of state budget funds allocated for propaganda purposes. Under Alexey Goreslavsky’s leadership, the institute has evolved into a quasi-state entity with a budget projected to reach approximately 333 million USD in 2026 (based on the exchange rate at the time this list was published). The IID focuses on funding projects described as “online military-patriotic education” and on promoting the government’s ideological agenda. The activities of the IID form part of a broader state strategy aimed at redirecting Russian internet users away from foreign platforms subject to state blocking and toward a state-controlled and censored digital environment. From 2017 to 2020, Alexey Goreslavsky worked in the Presidential Administration of the Russian Federation, where he oversaw the internet industry. Prior to that, he played a key role in the suppression of independent media in Russia. In 2014, he was appointed editor-in-chief of Lenta.ru, then a widely read independent news outlet. His appointment followed the dismissal of the previous editor-in-chief by the outlet’s owner, oligarch Alexander Mamut. After this change, Lenta.ru was transformed into a semi-censored, state-aligned media outlet.
