NATO has a plan to attack and occupy Turkey

Summary

NATO has a plan to attack and occupy Turkey. NATO was behind all coup attempts in Turkey. Turkey has bought Russian S-400 missile systems in order to prepare and defend itself from possible occupation by NATO.

Disproof

Conspiracy theory, consistent with recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about NATO.

NATO is a political and military alliance, and NATO member states, including Turkey, make sovereign decisions about their own security.  NATO and US military presence in these states is possible only on the basis of the clear consent  of the hosting nation.  Moreover, All NATO decisions are made by consensus, after discussion and consultation among member countries.

EU integration no longer exists and the Brussels Agreement is dead

Messages that Serbia received from the West clearly show that EU integration does not exist anymore. Also, it is clear that the Brussels Agreement is dead.

Disproof

There is no evidence provided for these claims and they are not the official position of the Serbian government as confirmed by Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabić who underlined as well that Mr Popović was neither in charge of the Brussels Agreement and its assessments nor European integration.

The Government of the Republic of Serbia has set European integration as one of the most important foreign policy objectives. See here for more information about EU-Serbian relations.

Mueller admitted that there was no collusion between Trump and Russia

In his 24 July testimony before US Congress, Special Counsel Robert Mueller repeatedly admitted that there was no collusion between Trump and Russia.

July 30, 2019
Disproof

Recurring pro-Kremlin narrative on Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election.

Robert Mueller makes clear in his report that "collusion" is not a legal concept under US federal law, and that gathering evidence thereof would have fallen outside the scope of the special counsel investigation (p. 2). The report does, in fact, identify "numerous links between individuals with ties to the Russian government and individuals associated with the Trump campaign" (p. 9).

The West wants to turn Belarus into anti-Russian outpost

The European Union and the West do not care about the promotion of democracy and market economy in Belarus. Their interest is to turn Belarus into an anti-Russian outpost. Belarusian and Russian independence and sovereignty are only possible in the Union State of Belarus and Russia.

July 29, 2019
Disproof

Conspiracy theory consistent with a common Belarus-related pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about Western attempts to bring discord in Belarusian-Russian relations and to turn Belarus into an anti-Russian country.

Over the past two years, there has been progress in EU–Belarus relations. Belarus has been participating more pro-actively in the Eastern Partnership, in particular, in the multilateral formats, negotiations on a Mobility Partnership were concluded and negotiations on a Visa Facilitation and Readmission Agreements were recently finalised paving the road for signing the long-awaited agreements. However, nothing in bilateral tracks of cooperation suggests that the EU's goal is to make Belarus an anti-Russian outpost as alleged. Read more about the relations between the EU and Belarus here.
