DISINFO: The Americans seek a full scale war in Ukraine

SUMMARY

The goal of John Bolton’s visit to Ukraine was to pull it into a full-scale war. The Americans need a full-scale war. The Americans are in full control of the situation and allow “vampires” from the Ukrainian side to make money in this local war. That’s why they build bio-labs, where they kidnap people, sell their organs. They earn from human trafficking, drug and arms trade. Americans allow all of this to happen and when it becomes necessary they will unleash this horde on Donbas. Their goal is a full scale war in Ukraine.

RESPONSE

Conspiracy theory based on recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narratives about war in Eastern Ukraine and US presence in Europe. The disinformation message aims to obfuscate clear violations of Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity by acts of aggression by the Russian armed forces since February 2014. See previous examples of the pro-Kremlin disinformation claiming that Washington and Brussels pushed Ukraine towards civil war, and that the West wanted to stage a global war in Ukraine. The message also perpetuates conspiracy about the Western involvement in alleged organ trade in Ukraine. See a similar case: Candidate for Mayor of Zugdidi trades in human organs. US national security adviser John Bolton visited Ukraine as the Ukrainian president prepares for his first trip to Washington. Read more about Bolton's visit here.
