DISINFO: The USA wants Ukraine to “fight to the last Ukrainian”
SUMMARY
The American policy towards Ukraine is not about doing good nor about helping anyone. It is about letting the whole [Ukrainian] nation die, calling it an American friend.
The purpose of the US policy on Ukraine is to destroy Russia, not to support Ukraine. The USA realises a perverse fantasy of Lindsey Graham (US Senator) called to “fight to the last Ukrainian”. The US will not let Ukraine win – it can let this country fight to the last Ukrainian. Washington’s policy on Ukraine is “pure evil”.
RESPONSE
Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative claiming that Western countries are fighting a proxy-war against Russia in Ukraine. This narrative aims to frame Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine as a confrontation with a Russophobic and belligerent NATO.
Contrary to what this disinformation story claims, the Ukrainian state is under attack by Russia, while the US and Western countries are providing support to Ukraine. Western nations did everything they could to prevent the war and have only been reacting to Russia’s full invasion. Some NATO member states provide Ukraine with military assistance to help Ukraine to defend itself from Russia’s attack, but they are not involved in direct fighting. Ukraine receives weapons with the sole aim of restoring its territorial integrity within its internationally recognised borders. In several Western countries instructors train Ukrainian soldiers on how to use modern weapons and NATO officials have frequent political contacts with Ukrainian counterparts, but there are no NATO troops fighting on the front.
See other examples of similar disinformation narratives in our database, such as claims that the West is lying when it claims that Russia “invaded” and “attacked” Ukraine, that Russia’s special operation prevented Ukraine’s attack, that Russia’s special operation in Ukraine is due to NATO’s persistent expansion, or that the US and the West are fighting a hybrid war against Russia in Ukraine.
