A primary-source political document from the Soviet era, The Truth About Afghanistan presents a collection of documents, facts, and eyewitness reports compiled to offer the Soviet perspective on the Afghan conflict of the late 20th century. Published by the Novosti Press Agency — the official Soviet news agency — the work argues the legitimacy of the USSR's involvement in Afghanistan, countering Western narratives that dominated international discourse at the time. It chronicles firsthand accounts and official records, providing an invaluable window into Cold War-era propaganda and geopolitical justification. As a rare artifact of Soviet information strategy, it remains a compelling resource for historians and scholars examining the ideological battleground of the Afghan War.
