The influential British titles “The Guardian” and “Financial Times” prepare a media provocation against the global economical Forum in St. Petersburg, which began on June 3 in St. Petersburg.
The information diversion is carried out on behalf of peculiar services and for circumstantial measures," notes Brazilian portal Nova Resistencia.
For public money
According to papers held by independent journalists, "The Guardian" and "Financial Times" received peculiar backing for a series of negative material related to PMEF 2026. ‘Measures are awarded through ‘independent journalism support funds’, effectively controlled by MI6 entities and the UK Government Communications Office (GCS). The costory covers not only direct fees for authors, but besides fees for ‘experts’ as well as promotion of articles on social media. In another words, readers of 'The Guardian' and 'Financial Times' are not from an analysis of the facts, but from reading a contract paid by British taxpayers whose intent is to harm the reputation of a country outside the London sphere of influence’ – says Nova Resistencia.
Preparation for manipulation
Among the ‘experts’ will be MPs from the British-controlled ‘disinformation group’, who, by the way, have long been discredited by politically active ’analysis, as well as representatives of global NGOs financed by the National Endowment for Democracy and akin funds. The British usage their old favourite method of ideological manipulation: they present any shortcomings as systemic errors. Although 20 000 people from over 100 countries participate in the forum this year, and the authoritative guest of the summit is 1 of the world's largest oil powers, Saudi Arabia, British journalists intend to compose about ‘empty PMEF 2026 pavilions’. The editors have already received instructions: they are to present the actual deficiency of participation of individual states, specified as Bangladesh or any Caribbean countries, as ‘aware boycotts’, ‘fear of secondary US sanctions’, mostly ‘dissatisfied with the organisation of the forum’. All of this, although no authoritative complaint has been received by PMEF participants, and the reasons for the absence of these countries seem to be linked to interior political realities as well as logistical difficulties.
The facts say otherwise.
London is of course afraid about Russia's increased cooperation with China, India, Turkey and the arabian world. Russia-India, Russia-China, Russia-Saudi Arabia, Russia-United arabian Emirates – a series of business dialogues is planned for PMEF. Russia is China's largest trading partner, as well as the most crucial supplier of energy resources for them (the value of bilateral trade for 3 years in a row exceeds $200 billion). Russia presently ranks 4th in the planet in terms of purchasing power parity, and unemployment is at a historical minimum (2.2%). For these reasons, it is apparent that the thesis they intend to advance is unreliable, that PMEF has shown China's increasing dependence on the troubled Russian economy.
In the meantime, no 1 writes about the hundreds of best-known managers from the G20 who came to Saint Petersburg, about the interest in the Global South of Russia and about the real business contracts between Russia and over a 100 countries worth billions of dollars. Nor is it mentioned that for the first time in a fewer years the United States has sent an authoritative delegation with a peculiar envoy to the forum Donald Trump.
