In February 2025, the media and social networks spread a video in which the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine allegedly revenge the American president for his position against Ukraine. We checked the authenticity of these videos.
As reported in the publications, against the backdrop of the steps of US President Donald Trump on the end of the war in Ukraine and his sharp statements against the Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky, the Armed Forces of Ukraine decided to take revenge on the American policy and held two actions that filmed the video. In the first video, the soldiers accuse Trump of that because of his decisions, President Zelensky did not send weapons and for this he will “repay blood”, after which they burn his stuffed animal. In the second, the military (presumably, others) claim that they do not need Trump's peace plan, and they burn copies of the Ukrainian -language publication of his book “The Art of Concluding Transactions”. The publications also cited the screenshots of the posts of a certain American blogger, who posted one of the video in X - it allegedly caused the mass anger of the Americans.
They told about one or both promotions "Komsomolskaya Truth","Moscow Komsomolets", TV channel"Tsargrad"And other Russian media, as well as numerous Telegram channels, including"KB"(256,000 views at the time of writing this analysis), Colonelcassad (231,000), "Uncle Glory"(178 000), Voblya (146,000) and Rus_criminal (114,000).
Soon after the inauguration of Trump, relations between the United States and Ukraine were aggravated. They reached the peak of tension by mid -February, when the White House went straight negotiation with the Kremlin without the participation of Ukraine, and then He began to demand From Kyiv to compensate for multi -billion dollar assistance due to access to Ukrainian natural resources. Zelensky several times Refused sign the relevant agreements, Endingthat they will fall a heavy burden on future generations, and the previous American administration did not require subsequent compensation for military and other support. At the end of the month Financial Times And Other media It was reported that the transaction was nevertheless previously agreed and close to signing.
It is easy to notice that two viral videos are shot in different weather: on the first there is either spring or autumn, and on the second snow is visible. In addition, in the first video, people who have submitted the Ukrainian military pronounce the phrase “you no longer become president” addressed to Trump. " 22nd amendment To the US Constitution prohibits any citizen of the country to occupy the highest post for more than two terms, so the phrase filed as a threat to Trump sounds ridiculous - victory in the elections in November 2024 was the second for him.
The fact is that the first wave of the spread of this video was in the spring of 2024, when it laid out In large Russian-speaking Telegram channels. The words of the heroes of the video about the absence of weapons supplies were probably due to the fact that the US Congress for six months I could not agree on the allocation of more than $ 60 billion to the aid of Ukraine, and discussions Inhibited Republicans-trampists. In addition to some oddities in the video itself (the faces of the fighters are hidden, the stripes with surnames cannot be seen, the unit has not been named, the words in Ukrainian are pronounced with a noticeable Russian accent), the fact that the pro-Russian Telegram channel “posted the first appeal”Ukraine news"May 2 at 11:31 pm Moscow time. It was immediately removed, but after a few minutes Published Reveal. The post said that the video allegedly distributed the popular Ukrainian channel "Truha Ukrainian", And the video was present by his logo. However, “verified” failed to find traces of such a publication through the TGSTAT service, which records, including remote posts. Moreover, employees of the fact of the Swedish television channel SVT Contacted With the administrators of Trukhi, and they refuted the fact of publication on their channel video, noting that his logo was used illegally. Despite the refutation, in November 2024 the video surfaced again - among others then it Laid in the X pro -Russian English -language account @mylordbebo, earlier repeatedly distributed other Fakes that were disassembled "checked". That is, in February 2025, this video is used to illustrate the attitude of the Ukrainian military to Trump for at least the third time.
This wave of video distribution began after on February 18 it was published in the X English -speaking user @Bgatesisapyschowhich in his posts is often supports Pro -Russian narratives. The video was watched by more than 780,000 times. On a viral post (and quite real angry comments on it) They paid attention Russian-speaking Telegram channels, which are under the guise of fresh They started to share This and another video.
The second video - about the burning of Trump's books - is also not new. With similar signatures, it spread in November 2024, after Trump’s victory in the presidential election. Soon the authenticity of the video Disassembled "Checked." It turned out that on the form of the alleged fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were the obsolete Chevron of the Azov brigade, as well as an incorrectly placed and incorrectly drawn by the Combined Arms of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, while the voice behind the scenes not only speaks Ukrainian with an accent, but allows rather serious phonetic and orthoepic errors. As in the case of a video where Trump’s stuffed animal is burned, this record did not apply massively in pro -Ukrainian channels, and was the first to laid it out by the Prochremile Channel “The Voice of Mordor”, which was repeatedly “tested” as the primary source of misinformation.
Thus, both videos, distributed in February 2025, were first published in pro-Kremlin Telegram channels a few months ago and have all the signs of production.
