00:00Макрон, Мерц и Старма

00:02Таргетед by Russian cocaine claims

00:04Viral social media posts

00:10are alleging that French President Emmanuel Macron

00:12German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz

00:14and British Prime Minister Keir Старма

00:16were caught taking cocaine

00:18on their trip to Kiev

00:19At the centre of the claims is this video

00:22showing the three leaders greeting one another

00:24on a train from Poland to Ukraine

00:26ahead of a meeting with President Volodymyr Zelensky

00:28to reaffirm their support for his country

00:31Social media users allege that the white object

00:33next to Macron's glass is a bag of cocaine

00:36which he hurriedly removes

00:38and that the object next to Mertz's hand is a snuff spoon

00:41The claims have also come from the highest echelons

00:44of Russia's government

00:45with Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova

00:48posting on her official Telegram channel

00:50that the trio got high together

00:52They have all the hallmarks of being part

00:54of a widespread Russian disinformation campaign

00:57designed to harm Ukraine and its allies' credibility

01:00The Elysee Palace stated

01:02on Ex that the alleged bag of cocaine is a mere tissue

01:05and that the fake news has been spread

01:07by France's enemies at home and abroad

01:09Indeed, it's been shared all over the internet

01:12by pro-Russian accounts and media

01:14and has even been pushed by far-right figures

01:17who are routinely critical of Ukraine

01:19The objects causing the controversy

01:20clearly look like a tissue and some sort of stirrer

01:24as opposed to anything related to drugs

01:26and that's what substance use researchers told Euroverify too

01:29A clip of the meeting was recorded and shared

01:32by both the Associated Press and Agence France-Presse

01:35two reputable news agencies

01:37which made no reference to any drug use

01:39and which surely wouldn't have been allowed

01:41in the room had anything untoward been going on

01:44Other accounts have since been sharing doctored images

01:47trying to make the tissue look more like a bag of cocaine

01:50but these two are ultimately part of the disinformation campaign
