DISINFORMATION CASE DETAILS

DISINFO: In the Eurasian Economic Union, the members have equal rights...

SUMMARY

In the Eurasian Economic Union, the members have equal rights – unlike in the EU.

RESPONSE

The Member States of the EU do have equal rights. Decisions under "ordinary legislative procedure" are adopted via the qualitative majority, but the European Council (meeting of the Heads of Member States) mostly takes its decisions by consensus: bit.ly/2gf309A, // Further debunking here: bit.ly/2pXEX3V,

Disclaimer

Cases in the EUvsDisinfo database focus on messages in the international information space that are identified as providing a partial, distorted, or false depiction of reality and spread key pro-Kremlin messages. This does not necessarily imply, however, that a given outlet is linked to the Kremlin or editorially pro-Kremlin, or that it has intentionally sought to disinform. EUvsDisinfo publications do not represent an official EU position, as the information and opinions expressed are based on media reporting and analysis of the East Stratcom Task Force.
