contact foreign populations and convey the message of the foreign government. Yet, while
messages never went through in such a mechanistic way, radio broadcasting emerged as an
extremely important part of Cold War strategy for both warring parties. However, while there have
been numerous studies about western Cold War broadcasting to the Soviet Union, there are
practically no studies that would tackle the issue of Soviet international broadcasting. [Continues, please see the article]
