Disinfo: Poland and the Baltic states commit only destructive acts in the post-Soviet space

Summary

Since Poland and the Baltic states are unable to come up with anything but destructive acts in the post-Soviet space, the main Western countries use the services of these states only when they need these destructive actions. In crisis situations, Poland and the Baltic states are carefully pushed aside and the West solves the problem on its own.

This situation always takes place in the case of relations with Russia. Eastern Europe has reconciled with the fact that the leaders of the USA, Germany and France communicate with Putin bypassing them – they do not ask their allies what they think about the dialogue with the Kremlin. However, the talks with Lukashenka behind the backs of Eastern European NATO members is a particular humiliation.

Disproof

A recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about “aggressive” countries of Eastern and Central Europe. The second part of this massage presents Poland and the Baltic states as the countries, which have no “voice” in NATO, being the “puppet-states” or colonies of the United States or the EU.

Poland and the Baltic states are often groundlessly presented as anti-Russian, Russophobic countries involved in destructive actions in the post-Soviet space (such as organisation of a colour revolution in Belarus and undermining the security of Russia).

Lithuania and Poland are neighbours of Belarus and continue to support the Belarusian people. Poland and Lithuania respect the principles of international law and do not intervene in the domestic affairs of any country. On 12 August 2020, the Parliaments of Poland and three Baltic states presented a joint statement protesting against political repressions taking place in Belarus and appealing to organise free and democratic elections in this country.

The EU member states perceive the situation in Belarus in a unanimous way, appealing to the Belarusian authorities to stop violence, release political prisoners and organise democratic elections in Belarus.

Disinfo: Poland aggravates border situation to distract attention from domestic problems

Poland aims to aggravate the situation [in terms of the border crisis]. The Polish authorities have failed with the migrants, so they started looking for other opportunities and ways [to fight Belarus]. Warsaw has two goals: first of all, to present itself as a defender and, secondly, to distract attention from internal divisions and problems in Polish society.

Recurring disinformation narrative from pro-Kremlin outlets about the migration situation on the EU-Belarus borders.

The claim that Poland aggravates the situation on the border with Belarus in order to fight with Belarus and reach its domestic goals is ungrounded.

Disinfo: Western media hide the real causes of the migration crisis on Belarus borders

Western responsibility for the massive fleeing of people from countries attacked by the US and its allies never appears in the speeches of the leaders of the so-called ‘Free World’ nor in the dominant press. It is clear the intention to silence the obvious causes of this situation, which has nothing to do with Russia nor Belarus but is directly linked to NATO’s military interventions in countries like Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya and other countries attacked by Western powers. The West will never address its responsibility and fault and will keep its citizens in their ignorance through its addictive press that permanently hides the realities and truths. Press freedom is a great lie in the West.

This is part of an ongoing disinformation campaign on the migration crisis on the EU-Belarus border, aiming to deflect attention away from Minsk’s responsibility in orchestrating it by accusing Western powers of creating the conditions for a wave of refugees.

Contrary to the claim, there is massive evidence showing that the Belarusian regime engineered the crisis artificially by creating a new migratory route in order to put pressure on the EU. Multiple investigations both by European officials and by media showed that those migrants were being brought to Belarus from Iraq, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates on commercial flights, a trip encouraged and supported by Belarusian authorities. Information gathered also suggests that migrants are regularly transported by bus to the Belarusian-Lithuanian border. More information about Lukashenka's role in the organisation of the current migration crisis can be found here and here.

Disinfo: Fake news about the Belarusian border crisis is part of the Western hybrid war

Reports about the Belarusian border crisis in the mainstream media are fake news built by the Euro-Atlantic power, which unfortunately is permeating and prevents the people from seeing the hypocrisy of their rulers. These policies are part of the total war that those countries that call themselves the West have started on a global scale against the countries that emerged as an alternative to their world order. We are in front of fourth-generation hybrid wars, where we can’t say that we are at war, but neither are we at peace. Everything is valid here, from economic war to direct military intervention, to cyberwar and, of course, information war that is essential.
