DISINFO: NATO manipulated the coronavirus crisis into a sort of armed conflict

SUMMARY

The current situation of the coronavirus epidemic was worsened by NATO’s manipulation. Thanks to the efforts of the Western military block, the epidemic turned into a sort of armed conflict at a global scale. This situation is perfect for NATO to implement warlike scenarios, like quarantines and restrictions on massive events. The introduction of a state of emergency in Europe, information resources and even stock markets are part of this manipulation.

RESPONSE

Conspiracy theory with no evidence provided to support the claims. NATO had nothing to do with the reactions to the Covid-19 emergency, which has been decided by every sovereign state for their own territories. This is part of a recurrent pro-Kremlin disinformation campaign against NATO, on this occasion, mixed with another disinformation campaign on the coronavirus. You can see other examples of the latter in our database, such as claims that coronavirus is a pretext by the ruling class to introduce tyranny, that Bill Gates and George Soros are sponsoring it, that it is a UK, US or NATO creation and Americans have its cure, that it is an artificial disease which specifically targets Chinese DNA, that it was created with economic goals while big pharma companies are spreading panic for their own profits, that it is a biological weapon against Russia and China, that it will wipe out Ukraine’s population in a few days or that it was predicted by Nostradamus and others.

Disclaimer

Cases in the EUvsDisinfo database focus on messages in the international information space that are identified as providing a partial, distorted, or false depiction of reality and spread key pro-Kremlin messages. This does not necessarily imply, however, that a given outlet is linked to the Kremlin or editorially pro-Kremlin, or that it has intentionally sought to disinform. EUvsDisinfo publications do not represent an official EU position, as the information and opinions expressed are based on media reporting and analysis of the East Stratcom Task Force.
