DISINFORMATION CASE DETAILS

DISINFO: The US is preparing Moldova for a hybrid war with Russia

SUMMARY

The US will analyse the Moldovan infrastructure and will check its readiness for wartime conditions. The American military will search also for potential allies among the local population. This research will be carried out with the active support of the NATO Liaison Office in Chisinau. The US is destroying Moldova’s economy.

RESPONSE

Contacted by Stopfals.md, the NATO Liaison Office in Chisinau denied this information: "The NATO Liaison Office in the Republic of Moldova did not receive any request or question (..), the information is false. Our mission is to facilitate the political dialogue and practical cooperation between NATO and the Republic of Moldova". No evidence given that the US would destroy Moldova's economy. Since 1992, the United States has provided over $1.4 billion in assistance to Moldova. Moldova’s $262 million, 5-year Millennium Challenge Corporation compact for economic development and investment projects in irrigation infrastructure, high-value agricultural production, and road rehabilitation ended in 2015. More details on Moldova’s MCC compact are available here.
