The Russian Embassy In Canada Put Out A Statement On Ukraine & Twitter Is Just Incredulous.
March 2, 2022, story has been Fact Checked.
Russia continues to ramp up the rhetoric surrounding its invasion of Ukraine, this time through a statement published by the Russian Embassy in Canada.
The statement posted to Twitter on March 1 takes aim at the Western response, likening it to Nazism and accusing the West of "monstrous and inhuman provocations."
"We are witnessing an unprecedented wave of lives, fake news, distorted and fabricated facts aimed at discrediting our actions," the statement reads.
"Goebbels-style Western propaganda was predictable. It cannot be trusted. The public in Canada should understand that."
The embassy also denied that Russian forces were targeting civilian areas in Ukraine.
"Russia is not starting wars. Russia is ending them," the statement concludes.
The U.S. has repeatedly warned that Russia would use lies to justify its invasion of Ukraine and counter the Western response.
