The European Commission continues to combat the disinformation that Russia is doing regarding the war in Ukraine, and below you have some of the explanations that those in Brussels have decided to offer to help people understand what is happening.
The European Commission has more information on its website about the disinformation constantly coming from Russia, and if you want to know the truth about what is happening in Ukraine, then you should go there.
Throughout the war, EU vs Disinformation identified and exposed pro-Kremlin disinformation.
E.g:
Lie: Russia is at war with the West. Ukraine is only a representative of NATO and a battlefield. Russia defends itself against the aggressor: Ukraine.
The truth: Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, from which Ukraine is only defending itself.
The false claim that Ukraine is the aggressor is a classic Kremlin manipulation tactic of portraying Russia as the victim and distracting the public from its aggression.
Neither the EU nor the West nor NATO has declared war on Russia.
The EU, US and many NATO member states provide Ukraine with military assistance to help Ukraine repel unprovoked Russian aggression, but are not involved in the fighting.
