DISINFO: Members of the European Parliament use Russophobia to advance their political careers
SUMMARY
Anna Fotyga writes anti-Russian resolutions on behalf of the European Parliament in order to advance her political career. One cannot do that on pro-Russian position. Russophobia pays really well.
RESPONSE
Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about the European Parliament and Russophobia, combined with a personal attack on the member of the European Parliament Anna Fotyga. The disinformation message appeared in the context of the European Parliament July 18, 2019 resolution on Russia, calling upon the Russian authorities to release without delay all illegally and arbitrarily detained Ukrainian citizens, including Crimean Tatars, the recently detained Red Square peaceful demonstrators of 10 July 2019, Ukrainian citizens detained on politically motivated charges and the 24 crew members of the Ukrainian naval vessels;.
