Center for Countering Disinformation publishes selection of Russian fakes made up on December 23

Espreso TV reports that according to the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, on December 23, Russians launched three major deceptions.

Manipulation: Russian Ambassador to the USA Antonov stated that Russian diplomats "tried to convey that all American systems, and primarily Patriot, would be legitimate targets for military strikes. And if Americans die? If they are part of the crews? What will be the reaction in Washington? Isn't this evidence of the administration's direct involvement in the conflict?"

Disinformation: Russian Embassy in Iceland stated: "Thesis that Ukraine has not done "anything bad to Russia" demonstrates clear reluctance of Reykjavik to recognize crimes of the Kyiv regime. For eight years, with silent connivance of curators, armed formations of Ukraine destroyed civilians of Donbas".

Manipulation: Russian mass media made titles for Ukrainian President V. Zelenskyy's speech in the US Congress with signature "leader of UGIL group (****not yet recognized as a terrorist group)". This presentation of information is outright manipulation.
