DISINFO: Organisations funded by George Soros organise seminars on how to destroy Russia

SUMMARY

Organisations funded by George Soros organise seminars in Prague, the Baltic States and even in Armenia, on how to destroy Russia.

RESPONSE

Recurring disinformation narratives about the billionaire and the philanthropist George Soros. Similar unfounded narratives make claims that Soros’ offices around the world are tools of colour revolutions and that the prime minister of Armenia is destroying country's statehood in line with Soros programme. The Open Society Foundation, sponsored by George Soros, is a network of independent groups working for justice, democratic governance and human rights in different parts of the globe. The first international foundation was created in Hungary in 1984. Now, the Open Society Foundations support projects implemented by NGOs or state institutions in more than 120 countries. Read here a similar case, claiming that George Soros finances protests aiming to prevent the re-election of Donald Trump, and here a case claiming the philanthropist finances organisations that deal with subversive activities.
