Disinfo: George Soros is behind political vandalism in Mexico City

Summary

The acts of vandalism carried out in the rectorship of the Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) on September 3 follow the same modus operandi as those that took place in Mexico City in August, and also the same origin: George Soros’ destabilising activism. The pretext in both cases was the same: protesting against women’s murders, as a facade of the frustration of a political mafia funded by Soros.

Disproof

Conspiracy theory. No evidence is provided to support the claim.

Billionaire George Soros is a recurrent target of Russian disinformation, which frequently accuses him of being behind controversial issues. See the EUvsDisinfo article about the all-powerful Mr. Soros.

Here you can find other examples of this disinformation narrative, such as his alleged promotion of massive migration to Western countries, his destabilising manoeuvres all over the world, his participation in ‘colour revolutions’ and protests in Romania, Russia, Armenia or Czech Republic (among many others), or his adoption of the term “conspiracy theory” to discredit those who speak the truth.

Russia is not a party to the conflict in Donbas, it is a arbitrator

It is necessary to stop portraying Russia as a party to the conflict. The contradictions between Luhansk, Donetsk  and the rest of Ukraine came to the forefront after the coup d’etat. Russia is an arbitrator there,  in the same vein as France, Germany or the OSCE that are trying to find a solution.

Disproof

A recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about war in Ukraine. See a similar case denying Russia’s involvement in the conflict in Eastern Ukraine here.

The EU has condemned the clear violation of Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity by acts of aggression by the Russian armed forces since February 2014.

Ukraine is sabotaging the implementation of Minsk accords and Steinmeier formula in Donbas

Listen, it is already 2019 and Ukraine has neither fulfilled the agreements under the ex-president nor under the new one. It is again drifting in some other direction.

Ukraine does not want and also cannot fulfil its commitments.

Disproof

Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about the Minsk agreements, portraying Ukraine as the only violator of the ceasefire.

The overview of the implementation of the Minsk II agreement shows that both parties have not fulfilled the plan. The analysis of the Atlantic Council shows that the majority of violations can be attributed to Russia-backed armed formations.

Baltic states followed Greta Thunberg’s agenda, it resulted in complete degradation and dying

Greta Thunberg proposed the UN General Assembly to deny the achievements of human civilisation, neglect economic development and material well-being for the sake of saving nature. This “positive agenda” is not new, it was made a reality in the Baltic states after the USSR collapsed. They fought the so-called “legacy of occupation” using ecological slogans. This all resulted in the complete degradation of the Baltic states.

The Western liberal ruling elite promotes the programme of the future through Greta. This programme is extremely regressive as it denies human creative powers, science and progress and proposes the past to the world.

The Baltic states made this programme of deliberate simplification, degradation, and archaisation real. Under the mottoes for saving nature, they run through the Bacchanalia of de-industrialisation and de-intellectualisation. The Baltic States can take some credit for the ecological situation though. The remaining small population only happens to be bothered by beavers and wild boars walking in downtown Riga. Hence, the path proposed by Greta Thunberg leads to the dying-out as the case of the Baltic states proves.

Disproof

This disinformation message combines conspiracy theories, ungrounded generalisations and simplifications, and is aimed to downsize the pressing problem of climate change, discredit both the ecological agenda and the Baltic states. It follows recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narratives about extreme socio-economic difficulties in the Baltic states and Greta Thunberg as a mouthpiece of powerful political forces with hidden agenda.

See earlier disinformation cases alleging that the Baltic states are dying because they chose not to be with Russia and that Lithuania will be depopulated in 20 years, that decaying Latvia and Lithuania envy Belarus its strategic relations with Russia and that Greta Thunberg is a political tool, whose key targets for “green blows” will be Russia and China.
