Disinfo: NATO sprays Poland with chemtrails

Summary

The chemtrails that NATO planes are spraying over Poland contain a high level of aluminum. The NATO planes spraying chemtrails are flying in from Germany, among other countries.

Disproof

The chemtrail conspiracy theory dates back to the late 1990s and refers to the supposedly nefarious motives behind the trails of condensation left by flying planes. Conspiracy theories such as this is often used in pro-Kremlin disinformation euvsdisinfo.eu/?s=conspiracy, . This is not the first time NATO is accused of spraying Poland with chemtrails. In 2010, a conspiracy site named Orgon-Polska.pl reported chemtrails in Poland appeared at the same time as country’s accession to NATO. The insinuation that NATO planes were spraying chemtrails was similarly presented without evidence.

Disinfo: The European Union has banned milk sales from small Ukrainian farms that do not have EU certification

The European Union has banned milk sales from small Ukrainian farms that do not have EU certification. Farmers selling milk or milk products from such farms face fines.

Disproof

The EU Ukraine Association Agreement that Rossiyskaya Gazeta refers to makes no mention of any ban on milk sales from private farms, but the agreement does outline the introduction of uniform sanitary standards for milk and other products. Meanwhile Ukraine’s Ministry of Agrarian Policy assures that the purchase of milk from private farms will continue and the introduction of a new state standard will take place on July 1, 2018 followed by a one year transition period.
