The political drama in the US is over. The “Democrats” usurpation of power has become a fact. The successful coup d’etat, coinciding with the election, against the populist president Donald Trump demonstrated that it is hardly no future in an attempt to rely on the people when the elites are in general against. But who knows, the spark ignited 6 January might start a flame.
An unfounded claim, describing the democratic process of electing Joe Biden for President as a “coup”.
This is part of a recurring disinformation narrative about the US in the context of the US presidential election. In its interim assessment on the conduct of the election, the OSCE finds that the contest was:
"competitive and well managed" (p. 1), noting that "evidence-deficient claims about election fraud" (ibid.) have been refuted by "election officials at all levels" (p. 3) and "national security agencies" (p. 11).
There were extensive investigations about possible fraud, which turned out to be unfounded. This unprecedented scrutiny led to the conclusion that the November 3rd elections were the most secure elections in the history of the United States.
Allegations of electoral fraud have been dismissed more than 60 times by different US courts and judges, both Republican and Democrats, due to lack of any significant evidence, including the Supreme Court in two occasions.
You can see other examples of this disinformation narrative, such as Dominion deleted 2.7 million Trump votes nationwide, Voting systems were designed to be hacked and were used by Biden to win the election, Massive fraud in the US 2020 Presidential elections.
6 January 2021, during a debate in the Senate, a number of Trump supporters broke through security perimeters and violently entered the Capitol, the seat of the US parliament, the Congress. The aim of the protesters was to impede the process of formally installing Joe Biden as the President of the United States, despite Biden winning the November election.

George Soros has recently had a major victory in Moldova. His longtime protégé Maia Sandu has been elected as president.
Sandu’s connection with Soros during the elections was obvious. The entire Soros network, which is more than a hundred NGOs and more than a hundred media outlets, including 25 TV channels, 21 radio stations, about 80 portals, campaigned for Sandu day and night and tore Dodon, who was supported by only three TV channels, to shreds.
This is recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation against pro-European leaders, claiming they are dependent on Soros.
Moldovan presidential elections took place on 15 November. Maia Sandu, a pro-Western candidate, defeated ex-president Igor Dodon, the Moscow-backed candidate. Sandu has always favoured closer ties with Europe, for which she became the target of the pro-Kremlin media who tend to label her as an "agent" of George Soros and the West.
American democracy is over and the country has split into two over the fraudulent presidential elections.
This is a recurring pro-Kremlin allegation about the stolen votes of the presidential elections in Biden's favour. The other part of the disinformation claim is related to the instability of democracy in the USA.
The day before Congress formally had to affirm Biden's victory in the 2020 US Presidential election, Donald Trump had encouraged his supporters to come to Washington to protest.
When pandemic will be over and EU borders will be open, in the Baltic States will be the same situation as 2008-2009 when hundreds of thousands of people left Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. These states lost 1/10 people of working age in a span of a few months. Now, there have been no special measures to support the small and medium-size business. The Baltic states have nor money, nor willingness to do it.
Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about abandoned and disappearing Baltic States.
The challenge of economical migration is topical for the Baltic states but in this message it hyperbolized. The migration temporarily increased after the 2008-2009 economic crisis, but it was not so dramatically huge. The statistical figures about migration in the Baltic states could be found in the book “The Politics of Economic Sustainability: Baltic and Visegrad Responses to the European Economic Crisis” (2014, edited by Karlis Bukovskis). The data shows that in Lithuania emigration increased from 2009 (in 2008 - 26.800, in 2009 - 40.400, in 2010 - 83.200) and began to decrease in 2011. In Estonian case, “in the 2007-2012 period the average net migration from Estonia was 7,000 people per year, which means there has been a loss of 0.75% of the population every year”. In Latvia emigration increased from 2009 (in 2008 - 27.000, in 2009 - 38.000, in 2010 - 39.000) and began to decrease in 2011 quite similarly as in Lithuania.
