DISINFO: Coronavirus: Western leaders sold their people for profit

SUMMARY

Western powers are creating panic around the coronavirus. There can be only 3 true causes of the “pandemic” of the coronavirus, which, is probably created by the US:

  1. the global economy needs to be cleaned of the “bad blood”, so this will help to avoid a future crisis;

  2. on the contrary, try to lead the crisis in order to cash in on it and weaken its competitors;

  3. to use psychosis and oil market problems in order to mask the bankruptcy of one’s own policy.

The West is creating a “smoke screen” for the unprecedented pumping of money under the pretext of a force majeure to save the Western economy.

RESPONSE

An unfounded pro-Kremlin conspiracy theory about the coronavirus, blaming the West and accusing the US of creating it. COVID-19 is not a biological weapon and there is no proof that it would have been artificially created. This coronavirus comes from a family of viruses originating in animals that include other viruses such as SARS and MERS. It was first reported in the Chinese city of Wuhan in central China and has been rapidly spreading across the world, with cases being reported in 150 countries, territories and areas by 16th of March 2020. Many other claims have been pushed by pro-Kremlin media since the outbreak started in January, for example, that governments overestimate the threat, that it was born in a laboratory to infect Chinese, that it is an element of hybrid warfare and that the remedy has been developed in Ukraine.
