DISINFO: New model of colour revolutions based on an environmentalist agenda could be created
SUMMARY
Globalists use environmentalism as a weapon. Billionaires like Bill Gates and George Soros use environmental issues to pursue their own interests, developing long-term strategies at the national, regional and global levels. Ecological problems are used by political environmentalists as a justification to interfere in the internal affairs of other states.
Some multinational corporations use Greenpeace as a tool to achieve political objectives. In 2020, George Soros launched the Open Society University Network to combat authoritarian governments and climate change. This strategic initiative promoted by Soros clearly aims to create a global “shadow state”, an international network of globalist activists with its own army of young street protesters.
Another environmental organisation is Green Cross International, whose founder and chairman is Mikhail Gorbachev. Besides the issue of access to water and other environmental problems Green Cross International deals with disarmament, non-proliferation of weapons, and control of nuclear and chemical materials. The US State Department is involved in the latter activities, and strives to establish monopolies in dual-use technologies and arms production.
The coordinated activities of these organisations and those of the globalist élite could create a new model of colour revolutions based on an environmental agenda. Environmental “zombification” by means of educational programmes, financial support and media manipulation could soon create a “green” narrative.
RESPONSE
This article contains two recurrent pro-Kremlin narratives: the narrative about colour revolutions promoted by the West in order to destabilise unwelcome governments around the world, as well as the narrative about the impact of all-powerful secret global élites on world affairs. The article’s message adds a new twist to these narratives by suggesting that a new model of globalist élite-promoted colour revolutions, based on an environmentalist agenda, is emerging.
This message is also consistent with the pro-Kremlin narrative claiming that the West is allegedly exploiting the environmental agenda and the climate change issue for self-serving reasons and using them as an imperialist tool against other countries, as well as the pro-Kremlin narrative claiming that international NGOs are subservient to globalist élites and/or Western governments.
“Colour revolutions” is a term that pro-Kremlin outlets use to identify popular protests that have occurred in recent years in various countries and that have arisen spontaneously for various reasons related to controversial domestic policies or serious social issues, such as the protests in Catalonia, Ukraine with Euromaidan, Georgia, Belarus, Hong Kong as well as the protests in Russia. Pro-Kremlin outlets do not recognise the popular and spontaneous nature of these demonstrations of national public dissent but portray them as revolutions planned, led and financed by Western actors.
There is no factual evidence nor serious political science research to support the theory about an all-powerful “globalist élite” that promotes “colour revolutions” around the world and which is preparing to use environmental issues to orchestrate future colour revolutions. The concept of a “global élite” is one of the most popular conspiracy theories spread by pro-Kremlin outlets.
Nor is there any evidence to support the article’s claims that George Soros aims to create a global “shadow state” with its own army of young street protesters. George Soros is a frequent target of pro-Kremlin disinformation.
George Soros is a philanthropist who established the Open Society Foundations in 1989. These foundations are the world’s largest private funder of independent groups working for democratic governance and human rights and fund different type of projects.
Furthermore, there is no evidence to support the article’s claim that environmental NGOs such as Greenpeace and Green Cross International are mere tools of the “globalist élite” and could work with the latter to promote new ecology-oriented “coloured revolutions”.
Greenpeace was founded in 1971 and focuses its campaigning on worldwide issues such as climate change, deforestation, overfishing, commercial whaling, genetic engineering, and anti-nuclear issues.
Green Cross International was founded in 1993 by Mikhail Gorbachev and its primary mission is to "respond to the combined challenges of security, poverty and environmental degradation to ensure a sustainable and secure future".
Read similar cases claiming that Climate issues is a noose used by Americans and Europeans to restrain competitors, that Soros finances extremist groups seeking to overthrow capitalism and promote a radical global environmentalist order, and that the West supports Belarusian environmental NGOs against Russia and the Russian Orthodox Church.
