ενταξει γνωστα αυτα, τα βλεπουμε δηλαδη δεν θελει και πολυ, αντε να αρχισει η ΕΕ να αντιδρα λιγακιThe EU has launched a “war against disinformation” spread by the Kremlin in an attempt to protect next year’s European parliament elections.
As new funding and measures were announced in Brussels, the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, was accused of spending more than £1bn a year to “spread lies” as part of a military strategy to cause division in Europe.
“There is strong evidence pointing to Russia as the primary source of disinformation in Europe,” said Andrus Ansip, vice-president of the European commission.
“Disinformation is part of Russian military doctrine and its strategy to divide and weaken the west. Russia spends €1.1bn a year on pro-Kremlin media. You will also have heard of the ‘troll factory’ based in St Petersburg and the bot armies.”
