DISINFO: The conflict in Ukraine is a proxy war waged by NATO against Russia

SUMMARY

The West is solely responsible for this conflict and the entire humanitarian tragedy in Ukraine. In this war, Kyiv is only a proxy, without any decision-making power. For this reason, it is necessary to understand the conflict as a proxy war waged by NATO against Russia through the Ukrainian regime.

RESPONSE

Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative portraying the war in Ukraine as a proxy war and blaming NATO and the West for it. This narrative aims to deflect Russia’s responsibility for its aggression against this country. This claim was made in the context of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

The US, the EU and NATO condemn in the strongest possible terms Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which is entirely unjustified and unprovoked. Not only Western but also many other nations around the world support Ukraine with military and financial aid for the country’s efficient self-defence, in accordance with the UN Charter article 51, to stop Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine.

Read similar cases claiming that NATO's is fighting a proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, War in Ukraine is a US and NATO proxy war aimed at weakening Russia, that NATO wages a proxy war against Russia, that the proxy war of the West against Russia started with the Maidan coup in 2014, that West is waging an undeclared war against Russia and Belarus, and that The special military operation is a proxy war between Russia and the West.
