DISINFO: The war in Ukraine was pre-planned by western strategists back in 2021

SUMMARY

Western strategists pre-planned the Ukrainian conflict long before the Russian special military operation started. The goal was to address the geopolitical challenges as the Covid-19 pandemic failed to do so. Anglo-Saxons planned to drag the EU and Germany into conflict with Russia thanks to the “Ukrainian card”.

In December 2021, western geopolitical drills “Collective power” took place in Jerusalem. The pandemic and disruption of supply chains failed to justify the incoming financial collapse. Once the drills finished, a powerful pumping of Ukraine with weapons started and western media began hysteria about imminent Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Hence, the Jerusalem drills put a bet on a military conflict as a solution to the problems which the pandemic failed to address.

RESPONSE

This is a big conspiracy accusing the West of anti-Russian policies in an attempt to deflect any responsibility for Moscow’s illicit actions and invasion of Ukraine. Putin’s personal decision to invade Ukraine and start the largest military conflict in Europe since WWII is attributed to a closed geopolitical event of the western actors which allegedly took place in Israel in 2021.

Pro-Kremlin media have repeatedly disseminated stories claiming the US planned Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent energy crisis, citing a fabricated document allegedly produced by the RAND Corporation and made public via a leak – a conspiracy previously debunked by StopFake and Myth Detector. See our earlier disinformation case dedicated to this story.

The term “Anglo-Saxons” in such cases normally stands for the US and UK and often means “evil”, “belligerent” and “morally corrupt” Westerners, as explained in our earlier analysis. As a negative catch-all term, the “Anglo-Saxons” term is a useful building block for pro-Kremlin conspiracy theories. You can find plenty of examples in our database.

See other examples of disinformation accusing Anglo-Saxons acting against Russia: Anglo-Saxons want to involve Ukraine in a war against Slavs; United Europe is a vassal of the Anglo-Saxons and they team up against Russia; Events in Kazakhstan are an attempt of Anglo-Saxons to encircle Russia; Anglo-Saxons invade the sphere of Russia’s national interests in Ukraine and the Balkans; Anglo-Saxons are on the edge of an anti-Russian attack.
