EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 3hMoscow calls China a partner ‘without limits’. Yet Beijing still negotiates hard over the price of Russian gas, with Moscow increasingly dependent on access to the Chinese market. Some limits are easier to spot at the negotiating table. 33011
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 4hRussia’s system for the unlawful deportation and forcible transfer of Ukrainian children has now reached North Korea. The EU has sanctioned the state-run Songdowon International Children’s Camp for participating in programmes involving Ukrainian children transferred from occupied territories. 15529
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 5hKremlin-affiliated outlets continue framing EU member states as warmongers unwilling to end the war. In reality, Russia rejected seven peace proposals last year alone, while Europe’s increased defence spending is a response to the growing Russian threat. 34018
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 6hRussia hit a scientific institution and a medical centre in Kyiv on the same day. People were killed at the National Academy of Sciences. Medical workers were injured at Dobrobut. Both buildings were left burning. 13514

EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 22hThe EU has sanctioned 10 Russian officials over their role in suppressing democratic opposition and the decision to ban Yabloko, the only political party in Russia to openly oppose the country’s war of aggression against Ukraine. 0445
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 29/09/2026Russia’s illegal deportation of Ukrainian children relies on an entire chain of institutions. Officials organise. Camps accommodate. Schools and programmes re-educate. State-linked bodies help normalise the process. 59653
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 29/09/2026A Russian drone struck the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in Kyiv. The building caught fire while people were still trapped inside, waiting for emergency crews to reach them. 34110

EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 29/09/2026Bucha was documented by survivors, journalists, investigators and satellite imagery. Years later, the Kremlin is still trying to make the evidence disappear through repetition. Denial does not erase the record. 39549
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 28/09/2026The Kremlin’s election narratives often come down to one idea: if democracy is fake everywhere, Moscow has nothing to explain regarding its own elections. In reality, democracy is not a mythical concept. And Moscow has a lot of explaining to do. 37216
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 28/09/2026Russia continues to deny the UN and other humanitarian groups safe access to occupied Oleshky. Thousands of civilians, including children, are facing shortages of food and medicine, with limited medical care, running water and electricity under Russian occupation. 39747
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 28/09/2026Sanctions are allegedly ‘ineffective’, according to Putin. Russia has merely lost major European markets, built a shadow fleet to evade restrictions and become more dependent on a much larger Chinese economy. Quite a lot of adaptation for something that supposedly has no effect. 48219
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 28/09/2026On 10 February 2022, Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Russia had ‘no plans to invade Ukraine’. Five days later, he dismissed reports of an imminent invasion as ‘Western hysteria’ and claimed Russian troops were already returning to their bases. Nine days later, Russia invaded Ukraine. 712659
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 28/09/2026277 Russian attack drones in a single day. In Kyiv alone, two kindergartens, two schools, residential buildings, warehouses, markets, and communications infrastructure were damaged. Moscow continues its terror against civilian life in Ukraine. 05323
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 28/09/2026Russia’s only registered openly anti-war party, had its nationwide candidate list removed before the vote. Two prominent party figures received lengthy prison sentences. Now the EU is sanctioning judges involved in the repression. 49434
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 27/09/2026At the UN, President Zelenskyy called Putin ‘patient zero’ and warned that the more freedom he has to act, the more dangerous the world will become. The message is clear: Russia’s ability to wage war must be constrained before its aggression spreads further. 210437
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 27/09/2026The Kremlin apparently thinks a pause for talks would be too much of an interruption to its war. Russia’s ‘commitment to peace’ on full display: 38824
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 26/09/2026Moscow calls its illegal full-scale invasion of Ukraine ‘a response to threats from the West’. At the UN, President Zelenskyy stated Russia is now using citizens from 47 countries to fight it. 25719
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 25/09/2026For the fifth year running, Putin has a familiar story to tell: Russia is under pressure, Russia is being sanctioned, Russia is the victim of an unfair West. What is missing from the story is why those sanctions appeared in the first place: Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. 18224
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 25/09/2026A recent CSIS report estimates Russia’s battlefield casualties in Ukraine at 1.4 million. That is 28 times the total Soviet casualties in Afghanistan and 18 times Russia’s losses in the two Chechen wars combined. 35227
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 25/09/2026The Kremlin claims Russia does not target civilian facilities. This week, Russian drones hit Kyiv again. Fuel stations, railway infrastructure, university campuses, and other civilian sites were damaged, with civilians killed and injured. Believe what you see. 06022
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 25/09/2026Having spent the past week insisting that Europe has ‘nothing to fear’ from Russia, Moscow is now back to threatening Europe with nuclear war. 19135
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 25/09/2026Moscow would like the Baltics to stop behaving as though Moscow might do the things Moscow keeps threatening to do. 16124
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 25/09/2026Yesterday, four Russian drones violated Moldova’s airspace, with one exploding in the north of the country and prompting a temporary closure of its air traffic. 26526
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 24/09/2026The EU has sanctioned former RT France chief Xenia Fedorova over her role in Russian influence operations. After RT was suspended in the EU, Fedorova found new platforms in France for familiar Kremlin narratives. No place for Kremlin influence operations in Europe — whatever platform they use. 312636
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 24/09/2026The publicly available footage very strongly suggests otherwise. 67212
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 24/09/2026Russian ballistic missiles struck Kyiv overnight, killing two people and injuring six, damaging homes, medical facilities, and civilian buildings. Russia’s rhetoric is about the danger it supposedly faces. Kyiv’s reality is the danger Russia poses across the border. 04615
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 24/09/2026Last year alone, the Kremlin rejected seven of those ceasefire and negotiation proposals. Kremlin propagandists continue to portray themselves as concerned about the suffering and devastation in Ukraine while conveniently omitting to name Russia’s illegal and unprovoked invasion as the cause. 14317
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 24/09/2026Air defence does not prolong the war. Russian attacks prolong the need for air defence. 08224
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 24/09/2026Russia invaded a sovereign country and brought its war to millions of Ukrainian civilians. The impact reaches global food security and the international order. Ukraine’s resistance begins with one basic right: self-defence. 010227
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 23/09/2026Even better yet, Russia could just save everyone the trouble and stop producing such vast amounts of it. 1589
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 23/09/2026Yesterday, Russia used FAB-250 aerial bombs to destroy the Church of St. John the Baptist in Kramatorsk. This is what the Kremlin considers to be a ‘legitimate military target’. 311660
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 23/09/2026Europe’s economic collapse: repeatedly announced in Russian speeches, extensively discussed in Kremlin media, stubbornly absent from reality. 16617
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 23/09/2026The Kremlin tradition of calling every new round of European sanctions ‘ineffective’ while demanding their immediate removal remains alive and well. 18015
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 23/09/2026Day 1,672 of the ‘3-day special military operation’. Still en route. 2469
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 23/09/2026Russia: threatens the Baltics. The Baltics: strengthen their defence. Russia: ‘Why are you threatening us?’ In Kremlin messaging, cause and effect are conveniently reversed. 315947
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 22/09/2026In Kremlin speeches: Russia stands with the Global South. In the Black Sea: Russia strikes ports and export infrastructure feeding global markets. 36723
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 22/09/2026The Kremlin continues to obfuscate Russia’s atrocities in Bucha with increasingly absurd conspiracy theories. 57827
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 22/09/2026GPS interference here. Sabotage there. Another unexplained drone. Another unsafe military encounter. Each deserves its own evidence and attribution. Together, they explain why Europe is taking hybrid threats much more seriously. 26011
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 22/09/2026The Kremlin continues to portray the Soviet invasion of Poland as a ‘defensive military operation’, Russia’s go-to euphemism for military aggression. 24356145
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 22/09/2026Russia’s Baltic playbook is built on contradictions. Portray NATO as ‘preparing an attack’. Cast the Baltic states as ‘aggressors’. Claim Russian speakers need ‘protection’. Then frame Russia as the party merely reacting to it all. 67324
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 22/09/2026The Kremlin should at the very least try holding something resembling an actual election before accusing others of fearing it. 65715
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 21/09/2026Russia’s claim that its attacks on Ukraine’s energy grid are ‘retaliation’ is demonstrably false. Russia has been relentlessly targeting Ukraine’s energy infrastructure since 2022, long before Ukraine even developed the means to strike deep inside Russia. 310346
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 21/09/2026Russia says it wants peace talks. Last week alone, residential buildings, petrol stations, energy infrastructure, ports, and a civilian railway were hit by Russian attacks. There is the message. And there is the record. 27826
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 21/09/2026Every Russian missile that hits a Ukrainian city is an attack on a European city. Ukraine is Europe. 17320101
EUvsDisinfo @euvsdisinfo.eu · 21/09/2026A Russian frigate fires flares towards a Danish helicopter. Russia calls Denmark ‘reckless’. If the logic sounds familiar, Ukraine has been hearing it for years. 29827
