Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo looks on as he attends a European Union leaders summit in Brussels, Belgium March 21, 2024.
The two leaders say instances of pro-Russian disinformation and interference had already been found in several member states. In particular, Belgian security services unearthed a network inside Belgium that involved cash transfers that took place in part in the Czech Republic. De Croo said EU leaders had agreed at a summit to deploy for two months an emergency crisis mechanism, which was activated during the Covid-19 pandemic. A task force will then closely monitor disinformation.
Belgium pointed to the particular risk posed not only to EU institutions but also to Nato which is headquartered near its capital Brussels. European parliamentary elections will take place June 6-9.
