Today marks the 14th anniversary of the Russo-Georgian War waged back in 2008. We continue to record Russian #disinformation narratives targeting audiences both in #Georgia and elsewhere.
In the thread below, we have collected some of the key disinformation narratives:
Russian disinformation has been denying any responsibility over the conflict, and attempting to deflect the blame. For example, by blaming the Kremlin's favorite scapegoats, "Anglo-Saxons", for the war.

Another "oldie-but-not-goldie" narrative from the Kremlin chest of lies attempts to deny Georgia's territorial integrity, sovereignty, and in the worst extreme, also the right to exist as a nation.

Kremlin disinformation also aims at driving a wedge between Georgia and its international partners, such as the #EU and @NATO. As an example, by baselessly suggesting that international partners are using Georgia just as a pawn in the geopolitical game.

Finally, the deep-end of the torrent of Russian disinformation spews out pure conspiracy theories. Such as claims that US biolabs are producing and testing biological weapons around the world. Georgia has also been targeted by these bizarre claims.
