The attack on a sovereign territory and state, with a democratically elected government, was the basis for the EU and NATO countries to support Ukraine in its right to self-defense. Europe is not afraid of peace with Russia, but rather…

The disinformation Telegram channel Nov Postzapaden Multipolaren Svet is neither new nor influential on its own. However, it is worrying that it has recently been recruited as a news source by the Macedonian branch of the Russian…

The reason why EU member states are being advised not to go to Moscow on May 9 is not because “the EU has long since ceased to share anti-fascist values,” but because Russia justified its military invasion of Ukraine with the so-called…

It is true that Germany and Great Britain have announced new military aid to Ukraine (not 21 billion euros as the post claims), but not because they want the war to continue, but to help Ukraine defend itself from Russia's brutal attacks,…

Truthmeter.mk was unable to find any news related to Putin issuing a decree that would open the way for Africans to obtain Russian citizenship, employment, and military service, as the post claims. We did not find such information on the…

Macedonian media outlets reported the article "Sadly, Trump is right on Ukraine" by Alan Kuperman, and although he holds a doctorate in political science, the article exudes banal Kremlin propaganda narratives, we've been hearing for the…

The post manipulates an outdated map, one in which Russia occupies more Ukrainian territory than it actually does, while rejecting EU appeals for respect of Ukraine's territorial integrity. It justifies this dismemberment by citing the…

At no point did Zelensky yell at the US Treasury Secretary who traveled to Kyiv to present and deliver the Minerals Deal offered by the US. It is true that Zelensky rejected the deal, but he did not call it exploitative or compare it to the…

The entire post is manipulative and aims to portray Ukraine, i.e. Zelensky and the European Union, as guilty of the war. This disinformation narrative is a well-known pro-Kremlin narrative and is not new. Russia constantly twists the…

A Facebook post claims that Britain is at war with Russia, and if that were true (which it is not), we certainly wouldn't have learned about it from a Facebook user's post, but it would have been all over media outlets around the world,…

The fictional narratives attributed to the Russian president are dominated by messages of division, conflict, the creation of an image of Europe as an attacked state with an identity in crisis, with media outlets that allegedly lie and with…

By focusing on the narrative of Zelensky's supposed "illegitimacy," the Kremlin attempts to obscure the truth: under Ukraine's Constitution, it is legally impossible to hold elections or referendums in the country during military…

A Facebook post lists events from Ukraine's recent history, creating the false impression that the Ukrainians were aggressive, and that Russia begged them to come to their senses, but was ultimately "forced" to take military action, thus…

Pro-Russian propagandists are now celebrating an alleged "defeat" of Ukraine, but the situation remains far from settled. With the announced peace deal, Russia could lose territory, and nothing is guaranteed—it's not even written, let alone…

Support for Ukraine is consistent with its right to self-defense. It is inaccurate to say that the EU or any European country provoked the military invasion. Russia was not attacked by anyone, rather, it was Russia that attacked Ukraine

Zelensky, the EU, and NATO did not initiate the war in Ukraine, nor are they directly responsible for the victims, despite the misleading claims in the post. Since the beginning of the Russian military invasion of Ukraine, Kremlin…

A Facebook post claims that NATO lost the war in Ukraine, but the alliance is not participating in it, and it’s unclear how Russia has won either. Russia doesn’t even have full control over the territories it illegally annexed, such as the…

A Facebook post falsely claims media outlets in our country are prohibited from commenting on Russian military successes in Donbas to avoid angering "the Fortress" (the US Embassy) and "Rada" (Radmila Shekerinska, NATO's Deputy Secretary…
