The myth that won’t die: blaming #NATO for #Russia’s war
In the murky landscape of #disinformation, few narratives have proven as stubbornly persistent as the claim that NATO expansion provoked Russia into invading #Ukraine.
This myth, recycled and rebranded by Kremlin apologists, shifts blame for Russia’s aggression onto the West – ignoring history and facts.

📊 Scientific challenges of FIMI:
🔹 The lack of a falsity requirement complicates traditional fact-checking approaches.
🔹 The exclusion of domestic disinfo makes comparative studies difficult.
🔹 Intent & coordination are hard to measure objectively, leading to subjectivity in classification.
For policymakers, these ambiguities provide flexibility. For researchers, they create inconsistencies in empirical analysis.
Foreign Information Manipulation & Interference #FIMI is central to the EU’s approach to #disinformation. But what kind of concept is it? And why is it useful for EU policy but less so for scientific research?
Unlike traditional disinfo frameworks, FIMI focuses on manipulative behavior rather than just falsehoods. This makes it an effective policy tool—but creates challenges for researchers.

🛠️ The #euvsdisinfo #dataset is a fantastic resource—well-structured, highly useful, and a great example of proactive #data sharing in the #research of #disinformation. I’ll be using it in an upcoming research project!
🔍 That said, the data collection #methodology remains a bit opaque. If anyone has insights on how the data is gathered, I’d love to hear more!

Se la Russia cerca di influenzare le elezioni tedesche
In vista delle elezioni del Bundestag del 23 febbraio, elementi dell'ecosistema di manipolazione delle informazioni pro-Cremlino hanno intensificato i loro sforzi di #disinformazione, mirando a destabilizzare il processo democratico in #Germania e a modellare il risultato più a loro piacimento.

@bartgroothuis Hello. :) We're all learning here, so genuine question: why use Mailchimp, a proprietary mailing list feeding your emails to create AI slop, to link to an EU project? I was confused, I thought maybe the #EUvsDisinfo website was down... but no, here it is. From getting to know the fediverse nerds a bit, my guess is a lot more would share non-chimpy links.

EUvsDisinfo is the flagship project of the European External Action Service’s East StratCom Task Force.
It was established in 2015 to better forecast, address, and respond to the Russian Federation’s ongoing disinformation campaigns affecting the European Union, its Member States, and countries in the shared neighbourhood.
RT by @eurireland: 🚩 False information is spreading all over the internet.
But how can we ensure young people know how to detect and fight #disinformation?

This morning (at 7am!) I was live on the radio to discuss how, ahead of key European election, #EUvsDisinfo exposed a 'Russian information laundering' network.
