Main narratives:
- Before everything was dictated by Moscow, now everything is dictated by Brussels and Latvia should make its own decisions
- The EU green deal should not restrict Latvia as it makes no contribution to global warming
- Children in schools are being forced to speak Latvian and cannot speak with each other in their mother tongue
- There is a site in Ukraine where you can buy anything that has been donated to Ukraine and thus people should stop donating
Overview:
In the examined weeks, new disinformation narratives have appeared. The new disinformation narratives have an underlying message of the European Union not being beneficial for Latvia. The content surrounding the Green Deal and global warming does not question global warming as such but rather focuses on how these restrictions imposed by the European union are negatively affecting the Latvian economy and even comparing the European Union to the USSR. Nevertheless, content on such topics is not gaining significant engagement.
