DISINFO: The Polish, American, British and Ukrainian secret services may hunt the Polish run-away judge down
SUMMARY
The former Polish judge Tomasz Szmydt, who has left for Belarus, is afraid of the actions of the Ukrainian and Western secret services. The Polish judge can harm many people in the Polish government and beyond, so he sees great danger coming from the Polish, American, British and Ukrainian secret services. At the same time, he trusts the words of Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenka, who said that this person is safe in Belarus.
RESPONSE
This message is a part of a wider narrative about the lack of democracy in Western countries, in this case, it promotes the idea that “aggressive” Poland and other democratic countries order political murders of the run-away “dissidents”.
No evidence is provided to support this claim, which is part of a classic "whataboutism" along the line "you blame me for bad things, but you do the same yourself". It is a whataboutism attempt to deflect attentiona away from Russia's assignations made in UK (like Alexander Litvinenko), Germany (the Tiergarden murder) and other attempts on political opponent such as former rusisan agent Sergei Skripal, and his daughter Yulia which were targeted with a Novichok chemical nerve critical in Salisbury, UK.
This claim was made in connection with the accusations and statements of the Polish Judge Tomasz Szmydt, who ran away to Belarus on 9 May 2024 seeking “political asylum” in this country. In Poland, he is under the suspicion of espionage in favour of Belarus and was stripped of his immunity.
When in Belarus, Tomasz Szmydt appeared on the Belarus state outlet of Belta as well as RT and Sputnik with allegations against on the current Polish government.
