NATO accused Russia of escalating disinformation campaign

NATO accused Russia of escalating a disinformation campaign since the Kremlin's 2014 seizure of Ukraine's Crimea region, saying Russian websites such as Sputnik and RT had posted false stories.

This was announced by NATO spokesperson Oana Lungescu, Censor.NET reports citing Reuters.

There is increasing concern among senior NATO and European Union officials over Russia's ability to use television and the Internet to spread what they say is fake news.

The defense alliance of 28 democracies says it has recorded more than a score of Russian myths in the last two years which it has attempted to knock down with factsheets, interviews, rebuttals and videos.

"NATO has been dealing with a significant increase in Russian propaganda and disinformation since Russia's illegal annexation of Crimea in 2014," Oana Lungescu said.

Lungescu said the most recent disinformation occurred earlier this month when Russian news website life.ru published a fabricated voice recording of NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg with a Russian prankster pretending to be Ukraine President Petro Poroshenko.

EP to approve visa waiver suspension mechanism next week - source

The European Parliament will complete the approval procedure of the visa waiver suspension mechanism in the beginning of the next plenary session, a source in the European Parliament told an UNIAN correspondent in Brussels on Friday.

Most likely, the approval will take place in Strasbourg on Monday, February 13, the source says. "At the beginning of the session, most likely on Monday, the announcement will be made that there is a corrigendum (a bill, edited and translated into all EU official languages), and if there are no objections, the decision will be adopted without a vote," the EP said. At the same time, the EP official said that no objections were expected as the decision has already been voted in December and this time a verified and translated version have to be passed. “There are changes, but they are purely technical and do not affect the content," the source said. The document is then to be approved by the EU Council: "At first, at COREPER, and then at a meeting of the EU Council on February 27, as a position A, without discussion," the official said.

After that, the document will be signed at the meeting of the European Parliament on March 1-2. "We also expect that immediately after the adoption by the Council of the mechanism, on the next day, i.e. on February 28, inter-institutional negotiations will be initiated on granting a visa-free regime to Ukraine. This is what the Council has promised us. The Parliament is ready to hold the talks as early as tomorrow," said the source..................
