DISINFORMATION CASE DETAILS

DISINFO: Photo shows: Norwegians do not want NATO exercises

SUMMARY

Photo shows: Norwegians do not want NATO exercises.

RESPONSE

The article is manipulative, as the NATO's Trident Juncture exercise is being carried out in Norway, based on a request by the Norwegian Government. Official documents prove that the placement of the American Naval Forces on the territory of Norway is legitimate. To illustrate the protest organized by the Norwegian Communist Party in 2018, Geworld.ge uses photos from 2016 that show a manifestation in Poland. Further debunking by Myth Detector.
