Disinfo: Poland is Anglo-Saxons' fighting dog

Summary

Poland is not only a loyal servant of Anglo-Saxons but, first of all, real Anglo-Saxons' fighting dog in the struggle against the increasing risk of a Russian “attack” (inexistent in reality). 

Disproof

Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative presenting Poland as a puppet of NATO.

In pro-Kremlin outlets, the term “Anglo-Saxons” stands for the US and UK and often means “belligerent” and “morally corrupt” Westerners, as explained in our earlier analysis.

Poland is a member of the European Union and NATO. Warsaw's concerns about security, as well as concerns of the other countries of the region, is linked to Russia's aggressive behaviour toward its neighbouring countries, in particular the illegal annexation of Crimea.

See other examples of disinformation narratives about Anglo-Saxons: Anglo-Saxons invade the sphere of Russia’s national interests in Ukraine and the Balkans; The Anglo-Saxons fooled Georgia into starting a war with Russia; Afghanistan case is a warning for Lithuania, Ukraine and other puppets of Anglo-Saxon imperialism.

Disinfo: Western sanctions against Belarus are illegitimate, inhumane and political in nature

The periodic Western sanctions adopted on December 2 against Belarus are as illegitimate as any restrictions imposed circumventing the UN Security Council. These sanctions, imposed simultaneously by the United States, the European Union, Britain and Canada, are inhumane in nature, as they negatively affect the lives of ordinary Belarusians.

Disproof

A recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about Western aggressive policy of sanctions, framing them as unjustified measures against Belarus.

EU sanctions are legitimate restrictions imposed in accordance with international and European law. Through restrictive measures, the EU intervenes where appropriate to respond to emerging or current crises. EU sanctions are carefully targeted and designed to be proportionate to the objectives they seek to achieve.

Disinfo: New Western sanctions against Belarus are illegal, inhumane and cynical

New sanctions by Western countries against Belarus are illegal and inhumane. These sanctions are illegitimate, like any restrictions imposed bypassing the UN Security Council. They are inhuman in nature due to their negative impact on the lives of ordinary Belarusian citizens. The West's decision is extremely cynical.

Disinfo: Lithuania and Poland should end their mockery of the migrants

International organisations should force Lithuania and Poland to end their mockery of migrants. There were a lot of facts of violation of human rights on the border. Lithuania and Poland refuse to fulfil international obligations and offer asylum to migrants.

Disproof

Recurring disinformation about Poland, Lithuania and the migration situation on the border of the EU and Belarus.

Lithuania and Poland, in reaction to the Lukashenka-manufactured crisis, are implementing a pushback strategy and are not allowing migrants to cross the border illegally. The European Union did not call for changes in this practice.
