State-owned international broadcasting systems are media outlets that broadcast not to the domestic market of a state, but to audiences outside of it to achieve certain informational and/or ideological goals of the sponsoring state. From shortwave radio to social media pages, international broadcasting systems have come a long way to their current state. In this study, we reviewed and systematised the knowledge about the international broadcasting systems of the world’s leading countries, as well as presented the most relevant knowledge about the Ukrainian international broadcasting system, its structure and the importance of information influence for the country in 2024.
