DISINFO: Russia has never been a party in the Donbas conflict

SUMMARY

Russia has never been a party in the Ukrainian internal conflict which broke out in 2014 in Donbas.

RESPONSE

A recurring pro-Kremlin disinformatin narrative about the armed conflict in Donbas. See a similar case denying Russia’s involvement in the conflict in Eastern Ukraine here. The EU has condemned the clear violation of Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity by acts of aggression by the Russian armed forces since February 2014.
