Conspiracy theoryDISINFO: EU tries to force regime change in Belarus in every way possible
SUMMARY
The EU is pressing every way to change the regime in Belarus, and does not even hide this in public discussions. This has for long been known and understood.
RESPONSE
Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about Belarus and the EU. The EU continues a step-by-step approach in its engagement with Belarus, supporting its civil society and victims of repression. It has also said that the elections were neither free nor fair. However, the protests in Belarus erupted to contest the results of the presidential election in Belarus on the 9th of August, which are considered fraudulent by large part of Belarusian society.
