Espreso TV reports that, according to the Center for Countering Disinformation at Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council, the Russians launched three major deceptions on January 25.
Manipulation: Commenting on Germany's decision to send Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine, Russian State Duma deputy Viktor Vodolatsky said: “These are people who do not realize what they are doing. Russia will not look the other way on this crime. We cannot let this issue go down the drain, realizing that it threatens our national security.”
Fake: Russian President Vladimir Putin said: “The blocking forces, consisting of Ukrainian nationalists, are shooting their own in the back. Unfortunately, the enemy does not pay attention to anything."
Disinformation: US Fox News channel columnist Tucker Carlson said that “American corporations are interested in the conflict in Ukraine, which is destroying the country's civilian infrastructure, because they can profit from it.”
