The Russian Federation has created in Britain fake media to discredit Western companies in Ukraine - media

The US company Sarn, which was accused of allegedly "criminal" activities, declares purposeful discredit, and in the British Parliament drew attention to the probable involvement of the Russian Federation and ready to strengthen the legislation for the media to disclose information about media owners. About it reports the British edition of The Guardian. The media notes that two portals (Londoninsider. uk. uk and Talk-finance. co.

The US firm Sarn, which works in Ukrainian energy and military equipment sectors, stated that they have been disseminated by these portals. The company adds that these "news resources" have been accused of trading in weapons, judicial fraud and fundraising.

Deputy Director of Sarn Armen Agas told reporters that his company categorically rejects "unfounded and completely fake news", which, he said, "distributed" on these sites with a headline: "Weapons, money and Sarn: as a Czech-American group. ". "We believe that they have become a target because of our work on economic development in Ukraine during the war," the company added. The Guardian also notes that site materials were probably created by artificial intelligence.

In parallel, Sarn involved a linguist, who, having analyzed the material, noted that the text of the article was written in Russian.
