DISINFO: The US wants to push Russia into the conflict in Afghanistan
SUMMARY
The US behaviour in Afghanistan intensifies destabilisation in the region, strengthens social crises and increases the threat of terrorism. It is a well-calculated tactic. The aim is to fuel conflict in the region. The US and other Western countries want to push Russia and its allies into this conflict. It could eliminate Russia from foreign affairs. Caught up in the conflict in Afghanistan, Russia will not disturb Western countries in running the world.
RESPONSE
Conspiracy theory portraying the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan as an action against Russia which is the ultimate target of current events. Contrary to the claim, the US decision to leave Afghanistan is culmination of attempts of successive US President administrations to withdraw American troops from Afghanistan.
