Pakistan on Saturday, reprimanded Indian denial of EU DisinfoLab report regarding its fake news and propaganda campaign against Pakistan.
“Pakistan rejects the Indian Ministry of External Affairs (MEA)’s attempt to deny responsibility for the elaborate and reprehensible global disinformation campaign against Pakistan exposed by EU DisinfoLab,” read the press-release issued by Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA).
Pakistan has highlighted that watchdog’s report reveals the web of more than 750 media in 116 countries; over 550 website domain names; resurrection of dead people; impersonation of EU institutions and direct control of more than 10 NGOs accredited to the UN Human Rights Council, utilized for the purpose of pushing fake news and false Indian propaganda against Pakistan since 2005.
Furthermore, the Foreign Office (FO) stressed that India’s claims have no legs to stand on and that the recent developments have exposed that India is neither ‘responsible’ nor a ‘democracy’.
The development comes as Pakistan has already shared extensive and irrefutable evidence of India’s active planning, promoting, aiding, abetting, financing and executing terrorist activities in Pakistan.
Pakistan has urged UN Human Rights machinery, particularly the Human Rights Council (HRC), to take a serious look as to how a prestigious platform such as the HRC could be misused in such a manner against a member state.
