On March 3, Li JingJing, a journalist with China’s state-run CGTN, interviewed Nick Brana, an American emigrant from Chile and founder of an obscure Movement for a People's Party. 

Brana's Movement for a People's Party was one of the organizers of a pro-Russian rally in Washington, D.C. on February 19, when hundreds gathered at the Lincoln Memorial, many carrying Russian flags and wearing clothes marked with the letter “Z” — Russia’s symbol for the war in Ukraine. 

The organizers, some of whom are working for Russia’s state-owned media, dubbed their rally “Rage against the war machine,” but blamed Russia’s aggression in Ukraine on the West. 

Their demands mirror the key narratives of Russian propaganda, including that the United States stop supporting Ukraine, and that both the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), a 30-member defensive military alliance, and the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), be dissolved. 

Discussing the rally with Brana, Li JingJing said the protesters “want to send a clear message to the warmongers: ‘Stop pushing the world to a WWIII.’” Threats of a third world war are a regular Kremlin talking point, intended to dismay and curtail Western support for Ukraine. 

Li’s depiction of the marginal political factions and figures behind the “Rage Against the War Machine” rally as “the real voices” in American society or any genuine anti-war debate is misleading.
