That "spy dossier" supposedly from Ukraine that Mriya Aid used to attack a journalist, David Pugliese, who called them out early? It never existed.
MA faked "evidence" he was a russian agent, and went after other critics with threats of SA+violence.
Sound familiar?!? 🇺🇦🧵👇

Disclaimer: years of sifting through this, and you'll find selfish actors, suspicious ones, and genuine supporters of Ukraine caught in the middle.
I admire Canada, and volunteers who've proven true allies of Ukraine despite this chaos. Let those who caused this own it.

"David was threatened with death" - others too.
There's a certain sort of Western grift that influences circles of "support" into mobbing 🇺🇦s who call out shadiness.
OKhudetska's journalism, activism, and tacmed training are widely respected in 🇺🇦. This was a disgrace.

"Ukrainian archives, indicated as the source of the documents, have stated that they don't have such documents.
The “photocopies” have been examined by experts in typography, graphology, etc., and found to be forgeries."

"The lawsuit filed by Mriya against the journalist - or rather not Mriya - but 'a businessman who supported a charitable foundation,' also contains this fake spy dossier (an incredible coincidence)."

"He was quickly added to the Myrotvorets database, and articles about his 'exposure' appeared on @ukrpravda_news
I hope they will be quick to write a retraction as well.
A report on the phony dossier is posted here."

@ukrpravda_news @OKhudetska continues:
"I think that the connection between the plaintiff from Mriya and the former minister who waved the dossier from the parliamentary rostrum will be very easy to find, and most likely it will be monetary🤭"

She continues: "I hate to do this, but @ServiceSsu, please note that these crooks have infiltrated the Ministry of Defense and drone production in Ukraine."
Ed.: This is why you don't just dismiss such operations as "drama"!

Yes, pundits who chased Twitter clout rather than verified Ukrainian sources faceplant when the archives cited as sources say, "We have no such documents, actually".
But in whose attention span does hard proof revise the damage that rumors did?? This is a recurring problem.

Because this playbook gets repeated, I repeat:
Nobody is more serious about saving Ukrainian lives than Ukrainians. Voices and orgs in Ukraine that hold widespread respect have earned it.
When Western grifters can't match them, they slander them. russia exploits that.
