Disinfo: George Soros is a merchant of migrants and an exterminator of cultures

Summary

George Soros transferred the last 18 billion dollars of his fortune to his own Open Society foundation, with the same goal as always: imposing the wildest version of capitalism and erasing any identitarian element. Under the alleged goal of defending minorities and refugees, this philosophy requires that there are no borders and that the differences between nations disappear. If there are no borders, people and goods can enter without control, and if people from countries where salaries are lower enter uncontrolled, that will be much more effective for capitalism without borders. This is also related to the idea of converting all citizens of the world into the same consumer, without different tastes, histories or roots. And for this, nothing better that a tycoon that has influence in many governments in Europe and the world, to create universities, think tanks, institutes of international relations, while selling to the world the idea that he is a philantropist that only wants freedom and welfare for the world. Extirpating every trace of difference between countries and cultures is the great crusade of Soros.

Disproof

Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation and conspiracy narrative about billionaire George Soros, frequently portrayed as an evil puppet master behind current events.

In this case Soros is portrayed as a leading force behind irregular immigration. Although some projects backed by the Open Society foundation support migrants, refugees and asylum seekers, the claim that Soros wants to encourage immigration in order to erase cultural differences to promote “capitalism without borders” is disinformation not backed by evidence despite being frequently repeated by pro-Kremlin disinformation outlets, aiming to exacerbate anti-immigrant feelings and promote social divisions.

Disinfo: Latvia prefers Russophobia to recognition of Russian vaccination certificate

A new wave of coronavirus in Latvia is accompanied by a new wave of insanity. Those vaccinated by "Sputnik V" were officially equated with the unvaccinated.

Even those who had COVID, don't count as having a valid certificate if it was issued by Russia. It turns out that there is COVID-Russophobia. That is, if you were ill and got vaccinated by Sputnik V, it will not count. Many citizens in this situation, in the opinion of the Latvian authorities, are second-class people.

Instead of helping people somehow, it turns out that anti-Russian policy is more important to Levits [president of Latvia] than the health of his own citizens.

Disproof

Citizens vaccinated with vaccines not recognised by EMA indeed do not have COVID passports with QR codes in the EU. But Latvia's "anti-Russian policy" has absolutely nothing to do with it.

At the beginning of July, the European Union offered Russia the mutual recognition of vaccination certificates (without the certification of the vaccines themselves). Russia has expressed interest, but negotiations are proceeding slowly, and, according to the EU Ambassador to Russia, Markus Ederer, through the fault of the Russian side.

Disinfo: The WHO is a globalist and highly suspicious organisation

The WHO is a globalist and, to put it mildly, highly suspicious organisation.

Disproof

Pro-Kremlin media often use the method of denigrating and defaming international organisations such as the OSCE, Council of Europe, WHO, WADA or OPCW, portraying them as anti-Russian and practicing double standards.

WHO's primary role is to direct international health within the United Nations' system and to lead partners in global health responses. The WHO Constitution states its main objective as the attainment by all peoples of the highest possible level of health.

Disinfo: Georgia is a colony of the Euro-American imperialism, subject to imposed Western liberal values

Georgia is still a typical colonial country with no sign that it could free itself from the clutches of Euro-American imperialism.

Moreover, it is obvious that the so-called political elite in Georgia, obsessed with the desire to be in power, is ready to follow the instructions received from outside the country. Representatives of the government and the opposition agree to legalise things that are unacceptable to the Georgian national-traditional and Orthodox beliefs, such as, for example, same-sex marriage.

Disproof

A common pro-Kremlin narrative on “lost sovereignty” challenging Georgian statehood, as if Georgia is ruled by the West, consistent with the pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about Western values.

Pro-Kremlin outlets often claim that many countries, not under Moscow's control, are "Western puppets".
