Russia's operation against Poland and NATO
Russias disinformation campaign wants to convince Ukrainians that Poland is preparing to annex its western territories. Its nonsense, but dangerous, and has implications for NATO.Russian propaganda attaches great importance to promoting anti-Polish lies. Among the most frequent of these lies are allegations that Poland wants to attack Ukraine and annex its western territories. This nonsense, that may only amuse some people, is in fact a part of a serious and dangerous disinformation operation targeted at Poland, which also has implications for the whole of NATO.
Russian propaganda falsely claims that Poland is preparing to annex western territories of Ukraine, while all the effort put in helping Ukrainians is a cynical game related to the plan of attack.
There are allegations that the Polish government wants the historical Republic of Poland reborn, or that it proceeds with preparations for annexation referenda. Some propagandists are accusing Poland of planning to seize the whole Ukrainian state or to partition it together with Romania and Hungary.

Russian propaganda and disinformation campaigns, as we know through our own election experiences in the U.S., create clouds of confusion which take time to clear with truth.

It appears that one of the few things that Russia excels at is producing propaganda.

their lies sound. Nobody is worried about an attack from Poland. Everybody knows Russia has designs on Poland.
