This quote is not real, however. There is no proof that Rutte has ever said or implied that he would expel the U.S. from NATO, and Rutte congratulated the incoming President on his victory in a post on X just two days after Election Day.
NATO spokesperson Daniele Riggio told PolitiFact the claim is "bogus."
"Secretary General Rutte has never said this," Riggio said. This post was flagged as part of Meta's efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed.
Rubio has commented on the need for a pragmatic approach to end the Ukraine conflict, but he hasn't suggested allowing Russia to control Ukrainian territory as a solution. During a recent interview on NBC's Meet the Press and on the Today Show, Rubio said the war appears to be in a "stalemate" and argued for a negotiated settlement as a realistic path to peace. He highlighted the bravery of Ukrainians but expressed concern about the U.S. funding a prolonged conflict, suggesting that a practical end to the hostilities should be prioritized to prevent further destruction and economic strain on Ukraine.
There was no real evidence of Rutte making the statement, which would have generated news headlines if he had actually said it. The quote was fabricated. A NATO spokesperson said the claim was "bogus."
Advertising campaign calling for "stand with Ukraine," which was allegedly initiated by the Ukrainian government, is fake. The corporation that installed the billboard shown in the video denied the existence of such an advertisement.
Francis Fukuyama did not make such statements in an interview with Radio Svoboda. This conclusion was made by the Russian media. In reality, the American philosopher noted that the only way for Russia to leave the occupied territories is Ukraine's victory. He also said that "the issue that Ukraine will face in the future is the possibility that not 100 percent can be liberated". Yet he specified that all discussions about territorial concessions during future negotiations are speculative, and only the Ukrainians themselves should answer these questions and make decisions.
None of the ally states, except aggressive Russia, have any territorial claims to Ukraine. Experts suggest rebuilding post-war Ukraine using the experience of the Second World War aftermath.
A video in a recent Facebook post cobbles together quotes from an Oct. 19 address by President Joe Biden as evidence that the commander in chief has confirmed World War III is underway.
President Joe Biden urged aid for Israel and Ukraine in a recent primetime address; he didn't declare World War III.
We rate claims Biden confirmed World War III on live TV - or anywhere - False.
Biden was not referring to investments in "killing Ukrainians" or the American military-industrial complex, as the Russian media wrote. The president was talking about investing in the security and stability of the democratic world. Biden noted that when terrorists do not pay the price for their terror, and dictators do not pay for their aggression, they cause even more chaos, death and destruction, triggering a chain of unpunished cruelty around the world.
The American President emphasized that there is a direct link between Ukraine's victory in the Russian war and the well-being of American citizens. Biden emphasized that if we do not stop dictator Putin and his ilk now, after Ukraine and Israel, they will move on to other countries â the NATO countries, including the United States.
Former American adult actress of Lebanese origin Mia Khalifa did not thank Ukraine for helping the Islamic movement Hamas. Neither USA TODAY, which is cited by Russian propaganda, nor any other reputable media outlets have published news with words of gratitude to Ukraine from Mia Khalifa.
