EU, Canada and Lithuania pull out of disinformation conference after US pressure

The Trump administration was bothered by panels that referred to the U.S. as a disinformation threat.

The Trump administration pressured diplomatic officials from the EU, Canada and Lithuania to pull out of an international conference on disinformation after organizers announced panels warning of the threat posed by American government officials and the country’s influence broadly, according to excerpts of a State Department cable seen by POLITICO.

great panel with @robin.berjon.com @scarnecchia.net and @cathleen.eurosky.social who reminds us that "if we want to have a chance to create an open social web, we need to think how regulations have consequences for that future, and not just how they're meant to be regulating Big Tech" #disinfo2026

The result of the cable sent from Washington to its embassies all over Europe, and its bullying of Lithuania, Canada and the EEAS who—unlike France—folded in a time that independent research, academia and other institutions under attack need support most. #Disinfo2026

The #USA are #FIMI.
If they don’t like it, they should act on it.

I'm at #disinfo2026 to represent the ANTIGONE project (From Antagonism to Agonism in Digital Ecosystems), a new Horizon academic consortium that @disinfo.eu is part of. Come say hi if you're at the conf!

The US did not like being branded a source of disinformation at #Disinfo2026, so pressured other governments to withdraw support for the conference. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Canada, Litauen & EEAS har trukket sig som sponsorer for Europas største desinformationskonference #Disinfo2026 efter pres fra USA, skriver The Guardian. Årsag: At USA benævnes som en mulig påvirkningstrussel. En europæisk desinformationskonference i 2026, der ikke gør det, gør ikke sit arbejde.

Treating American interference as an unthinkable possibility is ludicrous. The record stretches from attempts to shape European elections to surveillance of European institutions, military pressure and sanctions against international judges.
