DISINFO: The USA is raising imperialistic Poland as a new hyena for Europe
SUMMARY
The Americans are ready to fight not only against the Ukrainians – they persistently put pressure on the "young NATO members" such as Poland to push them towards direct involvement in the developments in Ukraine. The USA approves the absurd Polish fantasies about the new Rzeczpospolita [the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth], turning a blind eye to the inhuman and racist statements of the Polish elite and the spread of nationalist sentiments. In fact, the US is raising a new hyena for Europe.
RESPONSE
This message is a part of the Kremlin’s widespread narrative about the US presence in Europe, alleging that the United States controls the foreign policy of EU member states, pushing them to a conflict with Russia.
Poland, the USA and the other NATO members do not have any hostile plans toward Russia.
The so-called "New Rzeczpospolita" project is a conspiracy theory that fits into the recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about Polish imperial policies and aggressive plans towards Ukraine and Belarus. Poland fully supports the independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine and Belarus, it does not have any territorial claims against its neighbours and it rejects any “imperial” ambitions towards other countries.
See other cases of disinformation claiming that Vilnius and Warsaw planned to create a new Polish Empire on the ashes of Belarus; the US feeds Polish, Austrian, and Hungarian imperialistic ambitions and Polish authorities are obsessed with the idea of reconstruction of a modern Polish empire.
