Warning regarding fake news: Romania is not joining the BRICS group
Published
False information has recently circulated in the public sphere claiming that Romania has changed its foreign policy orientation. These messages erroneously suggest that our country has come under the influence of Russia and that it is set to join the BRICS group, an economic organization that includes states such as Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.
Authorities and experts in combating disinformation point out that these claims are completely untrue. Romania maintains its firm commitments to the European Union and NATO, partnerships that represent the main pillars of its foreign and security policy. There is no official decision or diplomatic discussion that would indicate a change of direction toward BRICS.
Such false news, known as "fake news," aims to create confusion among the population and destabilize citizens' trust in state institutions. Disinformation often uses the names of international political leaders to provide an appearance of credibility to scenarios that have no connection to the current political reality.
It is essential for the public to verify the sources of information before sharing them on social media. Critical news consumption and consulting official press sources represent the best method to prevent the spread of manipulations that can affect the safety and image of our country.
