EUvsDisinfo is the flagship project of the European External Action Service’s East StratCom Task Force.
It was established in 2015 to better forecast, address, and respond to the Russian Federation’s ongoing disinformation campaigns affecting the European Union, its Member States, and countries in the shared neighbourhood.
EUvsDisinfo’s core objective is to increase public awareness and understanding of the Kremlin’s disinformation operations, and to help citizens in Europe and beyond develop resistance to digital information and media manipulation.
Using data analysis and media monitoring services in 15 languages, EUvsDisinfo identifies, compiles, and exposes disinformation cases originating in pro-Kremlin media that are spread across the EU and Eastern Partnership countries.
As of 2019, our monitoring capabilities also uncover disinformation spread in the Western Balkans and the EU’s Southern neighbourhood. These cases (and their responses) are collected in the EUvsDisinfo database – the only searchable, open-source repository of its kind – which currently comprises over 17,000 samples of pro-Kremlin disinformation.
In addition to the database, we regularly publish articles and analyses about new developments in disinformation methods and practice, and collate international research that makes innovative contributions to the field.
Our team is also heavily involved in public and government outreach. We brief and train EU institutions, Member State governments, journalists, and civil society organisations, and regularly speak at international conferences. Our products are an important resource for political leaders, state agencies, researchers, think tanks, and journalists around the world.

EUvsDisinfo MCP Server: Advanced Access to Counter-Disinformation Data
To effectively expose and counter the evolving threat of foreign information manipulation and interference (FIMI), researchers, journalists, and developers require robust, scalable access to verified data. The EUvsDisinfo project – the flagship initiative of the EEAS East StratCom Task Force – now offers a dedicated Context Protocol (MCP) Server.
What is the EUvsDisinfo MCP Server?
The EUvsDisinfo MCP Server provides high-level, programmatic access to our comprehensive public database – the largest open-source repository of pro-Kremlin disinformation cases, fact-checks, and analytical reports.
Built to facilitate advanced research and seamless technical integration, the MCP Server allows external applications, AI agents, and custom software frameworks to securely query, retrieve, and interact with our structured data in real time.
Whether you are tracking long-term disinformation narratives, conducting statistical analysis, or building new tools to map information manipulation, the MCP Server connects your infrastructure directly to the frontline of our fact-checking operations.
Key Capabilities:
- Integration: Connect EUvsDisinfo data streams directly into your own analytical platforms, dashboards, or AI-driven workflows.
- Scale Your Research: Analyze trends, recurring narratives, and the mechanics of pro-Kremlin information manipulation at scale.
- Build Resilience: Empower your own reporting, fact-checking, or academic research with direct access to thousands of documented disinformation cases.
How to Request Access
To ensure the secure, reliable, and responsible use of our data infrastructure, access to the EUvsDisinfo MCP Server is available by request only.
If you are a researcher, developer, media professional, or part of a civil society organization looking to leverage our database to fight disinformation, we invite you to apply.
To request your access credentials, simply write us an email. Please include a brief introduction of yourself or your organization, and a short overview of how you intend to utilize the MCP Server to support the broader counter-disinformation community.
