Franța anchetează campaniile de dezinformare împotriva candidaților la prezidențialele din 2027

The Paris prosecutor's office has launched an investigation into disinformation campaigns targeting two potential candidates for the 2027 French presidential elections, Edouard Philippe and Gabriel Attal. Both politicians have been subjected to false claims on social media, with Philippe accused of having a neurodegenerative disease and Attal of suffering from Parkinson's and drug use. Attal has filed a complaint against these false reports, while Philippe's allies suggest possible Russian interference. The campaigns are part of a broader strategy seen in other countries, aiming to exploit existing tensions through misleading media content.
