EU, Canada and Lithuania pull out of disinformation conference after US pressure
Original: EU, Canada and Lithuania withdraw backing for disinformation conference after Trump administration pressure, exposing transatlantic rift
The European Union, Canada and Lithuania have withdrawn their support for a conference on disinformation following pressure from the Trump administration, according to The Korea Post. The move is being read as a sign of a widening transatlantic rift, with Washington's objections prompting close Western partners to step back from a joint initiative on a sensitive political topic.
Why now: The withdrawal highlights growing tension between the Trump administration and European and Canadian allies over disinformation policy.
