Speaker: Trump’s lawsuit proves that the BBC engaged in hybrid operation against Georgia as propaganda tool

“The BBC crafted a story before the elections aimed at discrediting Donald Trump. Behind this are political motives and an alleged political directive, specifically, a political operation against the U.S. President,” stated Shalva Papuashvili, the Speaker of the Parliament.

According to him, Donald Trump’s lawsuit reveals the extent to which the BBC is willing to falsify information for its own interests.

“This demonstrates the level of disinformation the BBC is prepared to spread for its own benefit. There are clear political motives and an alleged political order behind this, particularly aimed at the U.S. President. A story was deliberately prepared before the elections to undermine Donald Trump. Once again, the fairy tale about media standards, standards supposedly upheld in some countries, stands exposed, as we have seen countless times, as nothing more than a propaganda machine controlled by a single conglomerate operating across various nations. This only reinforces and confirms our longstanding claims against the BBC.

If I am not mistaken, President Trump has announced his intention to file a USD 10 billion lawsuit against the BBC. We are also working on this matter, and our legal team is actively involved. We will pursue the same path. There is also the possibility of appealing to the regulatory authorities, Ofcom, and we will utilise all legal avenues to expose the BBC’s falsifications.

Once again, these developments, particularly the Trump case, serve as evidence that this was a hybrid operation against Georgia, with the BBC participating as a propaganda tool.

Our lawyers are preparing the necessary legal documents, including an appeal, which will involve seeking legal assistance from the UK for proper representation. We are diligently working on this matter, and it will be addressed through legal channels,” Papuashvili explained.

For context, U.S. President Donald Trump has filed a lawsuit against the BBC, demanding USD ten billion in damages.
