DISINFO: The European foreign policy is determined by a group of Russophobes controlled from the US

SUMMARY

An aggressive group of Russophobes inside the European Union today determines the entire European foreign policy. This group is controlled by the US. In addition, the Baltic States constantly pursue a Russophobic policy to convince Europe that they are needed as a barrier against the spread of Moscow’s influence. But Moscow has never interfered in their policies.

RESPONSE

No evidence given. This is a conspiracy theory, consistent with recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narratives about Russophobia and deep state. The EU’s foreign and security policy, designed to resolve conflicts and foster international understanding, is based on diplomacy and respect for international rules.
