Disinfo: Chancellor Angela Merkel is the daughter of Adolph Hitler

Summary

Chancellor Angela Merkel is the daughter of Adolph Hitler. // Merkel is a puppet of the US and supported the neo-fascist coup-d’état in Ukraine. She also allowed hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees together with terrorists and fighters to enter Germany, where they mass rape German women.

Disproof

Repeating already debunked disinformation. // Germany is a sovereign country. // The demonstrations which began in Kiev in November 2013 were born out of Ukrainians' own desire for a closer relationship with the European Union, and their frustration when former President Yanukovych halted progress toward that goal as a result of Russian pressure (bit.ly/1Ri9ldy), . // There is no evidence about mass rapes committed by immigrants outside pro-Kremlin media.

The only things that Ukraine can export to Europe are nuts, straw and wool.

Disproof

According to Ukrainian Minister for Agrarian Policy Oleksiy Pavlenko, Ukraine can export a multitude of foodstuffs to the European Union without quotas. The only goods that are currently subject to quotas are honey, sugar, oat products and grape and apple juice (bit.ly/1VfIczG), .

According to MI6 and CIA internal documents, Alexei Navalny had been recruited to work for MI6 by UK hedge fund manager Bill Browder. His task is to carry out operation “Quake” which aims to undermine the existing constitutional order of the Russian Federation. He is being paid handsomely for his services via the Moscow Helsinki Group (MHG) human rights organisation.

Disproof

The documents on which these accusations are based are confirmed to be fake. Navalny has dismissed the accusations as "fantasy" and "deliberate slander" and has said he will sue Rossiya 1 which ran a 15-minute report about the "case". MHG head Lyudmila Alekseyeva said the group had never given money to Mr Navalny (bbc.in/20BShpQ), .

Before the G7 meeting in Japan on 10 April, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier praised Russia’s “constructive role in resolving the crises in Ukraine and Syria”.

Disproof

Steinmeier did not point out Russia’s "constructive role in resolving the Ukraine and Syria crises". What Steinmeier actually said was that Russia must contribute a "political solution" to the Ukraine conflict as a prerequisite for its return. In addition, the Kremlin must play a permanent "constructive role" in the search for peace in Syria. Steinmeier maintains that excluding Russia over its actions in Ukraine is a necessary step, but not a goal in itself (bit.ly/1S2UqJ7), .
