DISINFO: The US is constantly instigating colour revolutions around the world
SUMMARY
The United States is constantly [instigating] colour revolutions around the world, and now Washington is "selecting" the countries closest to Russia.
Not a year goes by without Americans having a colour revolution somewhere, every single year - in Latin America, in Africa, in Eurasia, anywhere. And now they are approaching both Belarus and Kazakhstan. The Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, and in 1992 the United States began [...] to test the strength of the first former Soviet republic, the weakest link at that time was Tajikistan. A little later, at the beginning of the 2000s, in Kyrgyzstan, the "tulip revolution". Not so long ago they tried to swing Uzbekistan through Karakalpakstan, then Kazakhstan. In practice, they go from weak to strong and everywhere they try to do something.
RESPONSE
Framing all popular protests against Russia’s interests as a foreign-led ‘colour revolution’ is a recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative. No evidence is provided to back up the claims.
Pro-Kremlin media frequently falsely portray popular protests around the world as instigated from abroad, often by the US and the West. The disinformation narrative has been applied, among others, to reports about protests in Georgia, Armenia, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Belarus, Venezuela, Slovakia, Hong Kong, with the aim of portraying protest movements as aggressive actors who constantly prepare new coups.
See other similar cases claiming that The West’s main activity in the post-Soviet states is organizing revolutions, that Protests in Kazakhstan are a new Western attempt to organise a colour revolution, that US-sponsored Kazakhstan protests aimed to undermine CIS stability, that The West will finance the Belarusian opposition abroad for a coup d'état, that the protests in Georgia were organised by the US, and that CIA and MI6 changed power in Armenia in order to oust Russia from the region.
