The week we left behind began with the disinformation of the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, who disinformed about the atmosphere during the European Parliament elections. She stated that “the political forces that oppose the confrontation with Russia are subject to discrimination, pressure and harassment”.
Zakharova’s disinformation about the European Parliament elections and her claims, which are part of wider Russian propaganda, are aimed at destabilizing European institutions. Her claims about severe restrictions and a lack of fair competition are not supported by concrete evidence. European elections are known for their transparency and high democratic standards.
She has also misinformed that “NATO is supplying Kosovo with weapons and helping it build its army”, which it says is “not allowed by the United Nations Security Council resolution”.
There was also disinformation about the American ambassador Michael Murphy. It was the President of Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, who disinformed with the allegations that Bosnia and Herzegovina is falling apart by the US Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Michael Murphy, and the Resolution on Srebrenica in the United Nations are false and part of a wider propaganda campaign.
Dodik’s statements about the role of the US Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina are part of a broader propaganda campaign aimed at destabilizing regional relations. Ambassador Michael Murphy is acting in accordance with international norms and principles and supports stability and peace in the region.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has made an unfounded and false accusation against the United States, saying that “the United States is trying to maintain its hegemony in the world through methods of open terror and direct financing of terrorist attacks by the Kiev regime against civilians on Russian territory”.
These statements are part of a broader disinformation campaign by Russian propaganda./The Geopost/
