Фейк Victoria Nuland called Olena Zelenska a “widow” and promised her American citizenship

Propagandists are spreading an alleged message from the Russian-language edition of Radio Svoboda (Liberty). According to it, US Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland said: “Zelenskyi's widow will be able to obtain US citizenship on an expedited basis”. It's fake.

Analysts of the Georgian project MythDetector drew attention to it. They contacted Radio Svoboda (Liberty), where they denied the existence of such a publication. In addition, they could not find a similar quote even in open sources. Distributed images have a publication date of February 23rd. On that day, the Radio did publish a message about Victoria Nuland, but it concerned the supply of fighter jets to Kyiv. Nuland's photo used in the fake can be found in one of the publication's materials for February 17, which refers to US support for strikes on Russian military facilities in Crimea. The project’s analysts also found out the original source of the fake, the Facebook account “Nona Sharabidze”, which quite often spreads Russian disinformation.

Thus, propagandists want to demoralize Ukrainian society and discredit the Ukrainian authorities. Like, the “Kyiv regime” headed by Zelenskyi are traitors who are ready to “sell” the country in any case and flee to the States. Detector Media has already explained how propagandists are trying to devalue the government of Ukraine using the phrase “Kyiv regime”.
