DISINFO: 50 countries are waging war against Russia
SUMMARY
It is the Ramstein coalition, with NATO at its centre, 50 countries that are waging war against Russia. The Ukrainian Armed Forces are a proxy army for NATO-Ramstein. Ukraine is a proxy regime for Ramstein-NATO. Ukrainians are simply slaves serving the interests of Ramstein-NATO. Ramstein and NATO are Russia's main enemies. And they are the main enemies of peace and security.
RESPONSE
Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narratives aimed at undermining Ukrainian statehood and portraying it as a tool in a proxy war against Russia, as well as accusing the West of anti-Russian policies, aggressive Russophobia, and an allegedly belligerent and hostile agenda to destroy Russia, aiming to portray Russia as a victim and deflect any responsibility for Moscow’s illicit actions.

This claim is a reaction to the 33rd meeting of the Ukraine Defence Contact Group in the Ramstein format, where Ukraine's partners pledged nearly $38 billion in new military aid.
The Ramstein format (known as the Defence Contact Group) is not a military alliance. The Ukraine Defence Contact Group (UDCG), also known as the Ramstein group, is a coalition of 56 nations, including all 32 NATO member states, 24 other countries, and the European Union.
NATO as an organisation is not involved in fighting in Ukraine, which is also reflected in the absence of NATO troops on the battlefield. Ukraine is acting as a sovereign state defending its territory, not a proxy army. In response to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, NATO has reinforced its support for capability development and capacity-building in Ukraine. NATO member states provide Ukraine with military assistance to repel the unprovoked Russian aggression and not because of their alleged animosity towards Russia.
NATO condemns in the strongest possible terms Russia’s invasion of Ukraine starting in February 2022, which is entirely unjustified and unprovoked.
