DISINFO: NATO is an aggressive coronavirus of capitalism

SUMMARY

Given that America’s foreign policy goal is global domination and NATO is under the US’s control, any country can fall victim to NATO aggression. NATO enlargement is the US’s anti-democratic and anti-historical policy whereas Western European countries’ role is to teach others about democracy and human rights while eastern European countries promote confrontational, anti-Russian activities. US aggressive policies in Ukraine, where Americans allied with Ukrainian fascists [banderivtsi] and waged a geopolitical war against Russia and the multi-polar world are telling. NATO is a militaristic coronavirus of capitalism directed against global progress. The West wishes to exploit foreign countries and deprive them of the right to independent development. China’s case in the fight against coronavirus proves that only socialism is capable of effectively coping illnesses, protect human lives, and ensure the security of countries and peoples. On the contrary, the US is on the verge of state destruction, and an anti-racist uprising of Black people serves as proof. To end aggressive NATO’s actions, Belarus’s only smart choice is to strengthen the Union State of Belarus and Russia and develop relations with China.

RESPONSE

This is a mix of conspiracies aimed to discredit NATO, the US and other Western countries, and Ukraine. It is consistent with recurring pro-Kremlin propaganda narratives about NATO countries as US puppets, West's aggressive and colonial policies, NATO belligerence towards Russia and other countries, and Fascist / Nazi Ukraine. It also paints the US's imminent collapse and inability to fight the coronavirus outbreak in contrast to China and promotes Belarus's deepened integration with Russia as the only viable development path. EU and NATO countries are often presented by pro-Kremlin outlets as “puppet-states” of the United States. NATO is a defensive alliance with the goal to protect its member states. Every country that joins NATO undertakes to uphold its principles and policies. For more information about NATO-Russia relations and disinformation narratives about NATO, see here and here. The myth of Nazi-ruled Ukraine has long been the cornerstone of Russian disinformation about the country, see an earlier debunk here. The publication presents the Russia-Ukraine conflict in a completely distorted way while in reality, massive evidence proves Russia's aggressive actions against Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity. See earlier disinformation cases alleging that the EU is ruled by an American NATO general, that the US has turned Ukraine into a puppet, and that the US and EU countries support Russophobic, neofascist, terrorist political parties and movements in the post-Soviet space.
