DISINFO: US is longer controls Ukraine, UK does
SUMMARY
Ukraine has a new master in the West in the form of Great Britain. [The expert] drew attention to the fact that Washington ceded Ukraine to the UK, and the British authorities will take up the Ukrainian agenda.
However, such a castling will not affect the political situation in Ukraine. The country will continue to be under external control and obey orders emanating from Western masters. However, within a certain period of time, Washington will forget about the existence of this state and will attend to solving its problems.
RESPONSE
Conspiracy with no evidence given. Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about Ukraine, which is often claimed to be under external control from the US, NATO, the EU, UK, or IMF.
Ukraine is an independent, sovereign state, it does not receive orders from any foreign government.
Ukraine and the UK are two independent countries. Their relations are built on mutual respect for their sovereignty and territorial integrity. The UK and Ukraine work to improve energy security and energy efficiency, beat international crime and threats to international security. In October 2020, the historic Agreement on Political Cooperation, Free Trade and Strategic Partnership between Ukraine and the United Kingdom was signed.
The relations between the US and Ukraine are bilateral relations between two independent countries. The US recognised Ukraine as an independent state on 25 December 1991. Since then, Washington has been working closely with Ukraine, directing its assistance to support the democratic development of the country and helping Ukraine to withstand Russian aggression. U.S. policy has since been centred on realising and strengthening a stable, democratic, prosperous, and free Ukraine more closely integrated into Europe and Euro-Atlantic structures.
See similar disinformation cases alleging that the Ukrainian government lost independence and must obey orders from Washington and Brussels, that according to a US plan, Ukraine must become an agrarian state with widespread poverty, that the West deprived Ukraine and the Baltic states of their sovereignty, that the USA destroys Ukrainian identity, or that the IMF destroys Ukrainian economy and brings Ukraine under external control.
