Disinfo: Biden promised war on Russia

Summary

Biden has virtually promised a war on Russia.

Disproof

This is another pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about the aggression of the USA which supposedly threatens Russia.

Joe Biden, the now President-Elect of the USA has not promised a war on Russia. Biden has declared that Russia should be held accountable for interference in elections if it is proven. In the same piece, you can read his other criticisms of Russia, and belief that Russia wants to break up NATO and the EU. Nowhere has the President-Elect talked about, or threatened, any sort of war with Russia.

A recurring disinformation narrative to hide the truth about Ukraine, the Crimea, and the North Crimean Canal.

The main condition for the renewal of the agreements on the water supply to the Crimea is the presence of legitimate authorities on the peninsula, which are absent after the annexation in the Crimea.

Disinfo: The 2020 US presidential election was marked by fraud and media bias

There’s quite an amusing tweet from eight years ago, in which Donald Trump warns about electoral fraud: “‘It doesn’t matter who you vote for, it matters who is counting the votes.’ Be careful of voter fraud!” This is what Trump wrote a month before the 2012 presidential election.

And what is happening now is certainly astounding. Trump’s attorney Rudy Giuliani stated there had been machinations during the vote count. Even the OSCE notes the bias in the American TV channels’ coverage of the US election.

The story is part of an emerging pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative seeking to delegitimise the conduct and results of the 2020 US presidential election.

The OSCE report referred to in the segment noted that President Trump had issued warnings of large-scale falsification "without presenting any substantial evidence of systematic malfeasance and contradicting election officials at all levels" (p. 3), and that "[i]n contrast to these allegations, national security agencies issued statements attempting to reassure citizens about the integrity of the election process" (p. 11).
