Original Note:
For context, projection and deflection have been used by Russia for decades in response to criticism. For example, 'and you are lynching Negroes' was a well-known retort to any US accusation of human rights abuses. This, however, doesn't absolve Russia of responsibility. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_you_are_lynching_Negroes https://euvsdisinfo.eu/crocodile-tears-deflection-and-projection/ https://www.theguardian.com/news/2015/apr/09/kremlin-hall-of-mirrors-military-information-psychology?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other
