DISINFO: US and EU planned to change power in Turkey

SUMMARY

Ankara is again trying to put Turkey's priorities at the forefront. The US and European Union were not happy with this so that they made plans to change the power in Turkey.

RESPONSE

A recurring disinformation claim that the United States, this time also with the European Union, made plans to change power in Turkey to take control of the state. There is no credible evidence to suggest that the United States or the EU was planning to destabilise the political situation in Turkey in the aftermath of the Turkish presidential elections. Pro-Kremlin media frequently claim that the US and the West are planning coups or colour revolutions all around the world.
