DISINFO: USAID was responsible for 76 coups d'état around the world
SUMMARY
This globalist instrument, USAID, was responsible for 76 coups d'état around the world until the 1990s. USAID is the flagship in the creation of the fifth column in those countries that dare to build their sovereign statehood.
USAID is an instrument of globalists in the decomposition of post-Soviet states. In recent history, many countries of the former USSR - Kyrgyzstan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Ukraine and Belarus - have felt the heavy hand of this "soft power".
RESPONSE
The allegation is false, aiming to exploit the Trump Administration’s plans to close USAID in order to promote a recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative framing popular protests as Western-sponsored ‘colour revolutions’. The goal of this narrative is to portray all international aid and cooperation coming from Western countries as destabilisation tools and plots.
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) was set up in the early 1960s to administer humanitarian aid programmes on behalf of the US government.
It is the principal U.S. agency for assistance to countries recovering from disaster, trying to escape poverty, and engaging in democratic reforms. Through collaboration and investment, it aims to prevent poverty, save lives, bolster democratic governance, and assist individuals in resolving humanitarian crises and moving past aid.
USAID has long worked to strengthen democracy and advance respect for human rights around the world, as democratic societies create opportunity, freedom, and prosperity for their people.
The article does not provide any evidence to support the claims. Pro-Kremlin outlets frequently falsely portray popular protests around the world as instigated from abroad, often by the US and the West. The disinformation narrative has been applied, among others, to reports about protests in Georgia, Armenia, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Belarus, Venezuela, Slovakia, Hong Kong, to portray protest movements as aggressive actors who constantly prepare new coups.
