Immediately after the assassination attempt on former US President Donald Trump, Russian propaganda began to throw into the information space versions of Ukraine’s alleged involvement in the incident.
This is written by Center for Countering Disinformation.
– In particular, the so-called “deputy of the Russian Federation Council” from the temporarily occupied Crimea, Sergei Tsekov called on the United States to consider the version of “involvement in the assassination attempt of the Ukrainian special services”. Like, it was Ukraine that could have organized the assassination attempt, since Trump promised to stop the war, — writes the department.
CPD notes that the purpose of such unsubstantiated Russian propaganda is to discredit Ukraine and the leadership of our state among Western audiences.

–Russians are trying to saturate social networks and the information space with their own inventions, the department notes.
In fact, writes TsPD, the name of the suspect is already known and he has nothing to do with Ukraine.
