DISINFO: Biden came to power after a colour revolution

SUMMARY

In a manner very similar to the Ukrainian events [in 2014], Biden has seized power from Trump in the US. This is a kind of geopolitical cycle in nature: at first, the United States “Americanised” Ukraine, tested it twice during “colour revolutions” and, in the end, practically turned it into its neo-colony under its own rigid external control with the use of native collaborators. Now the Ukrainian methods have been applied in the United States: the “colour revolution” technology was successfully used in the struggle for power.

RESPONSE

Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narratives about colour revolutions, recent US Presidential elections, and the Ukrainian statehood.

There was no colour revolution in the US. Allegations of electoral fraud have been dismissed more than 60 times by different US courts and judges, both Republican and Democrats, due to lack of any significant evidence, including by the Supreme Court on two occasions. There were extensive investigations about possible fraud, which turned out to be unfounded. This unprecedented scrutiny led to the conclusion that the November 3rd elections were the most secure elections in the history of the United States. Donald Trump lost the presidential election and the next US president, Joe Biden, was inaugurated on the 20th of January, 2021.

Futhermore, Ukraine is not a colony of the US. It is an independent, sovereign state. US policy is centred on supporting Ukraine. US assists Ukraine in advancing reforms to strengthen democratic institutions, fight corruption, and promote conditions for economic growth and competition.

See similar disinformation cases alleging that a colour revolution took place in the US, that the "deep state" decides who may or may not become president of the US, or that Democrats and globalist Republicans stole Donald Trump's victory in the US Presidential elections 2020.
