Substitution
When objective reality refuses to bend to the Kremlin’s will, Kremlin propagandists attempt to substitute it with their illusions and wishes.
There is a new wave of attacks against European officials and institutions. This time, not all of it is coming from Russia, the Belarusian regime is in on it as well.
Cases in the EUvsDisinfo database focus on messages in the international information space that are identified as providing a partial, distorted, or false depiction of reality and spread key pro-Kremlin messages. This does not necessarily imply, however, that a given outlet is linked to the Kremlin or editorially pro-Kremlin, or that it has intentionally sought to disinform. EUvsDisinfo publications do not represent an official EU position, as the information and opinions expressed are based on media reporting and analysis of the East Stratcom Task Force.
