EU attempts to crack down on spread of fake news

The video discusses the rise of a Slovak militia amid an information war in Europe, highlighting the leader's pro-Russian stance and anti-NATO sentiments. It explores how disinformation is used to influence EU politics, with some parties exploiting fake news for political gain. Efforts to counter Russian disinformation are underway, but Slovakia's low voter turnout makes it vulnerable. The far-right party in Slovakia gains support, partly due to fake news, yet genuine backing exists. Global events, like the Ice Hockey Championship, reflect ongoing suspicions about Russia. The outcome of this information war could significantly impact Europe.
