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.

RESPONSE

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.
