DISINFO: The madmen of EU and NATO are planning a world war

SUMMARY

The EU and NATO want to start a world war. The declaration of cooperation signed by the EU and NATO definitely places the European Union in the American bosom of NATO. The heads of these organisations want to unleash large-scale warfare. This hyperaggressive deal is aimed against Moscow - these madmen are planning a world war.

RESPONSE

Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about NATO and the EU, portraying them as belligerent organisations.

On 10 January 2023, the EU and NATO signed a Joint Declaration on Cooperation – this Declaration underlined a NATO-EU strategic partnership, condemned Russian aggression against Ukraine and presented NATO as a foundation of the European and American collective defence. The EU-NATO Cooperation Declaration is aimed at strengthening the mechanism of collective defence – this document does not assume any aggressive actions against Russia.

Since Russia began its aggressive actions against Ukraine, Russian officials have accused NATO of a series of threats and hostile actions. NATO is a defensive alliance with the primary aims of maintaining peace and safeguarding the independence, security and territorial integrity of its members. NATO constitutes a system of collective defence whereby its member states agree to mutual defence in response to an attack by any external party. Read five myths concerning NATO debunked here.
