Original Note:
Just a single still picture where in a fraction of a second Zelensky looked a bit awkward. The false claim, without any evidence, Zelensky used drugs is made up to harm Ukraine. This fake information is pushed by Putin and can be seen as Russian propaganda. https://www.forbes.com/sites/mattnovak/2023/04/11/viral-video-of-ukraines-zelensky-with-cocaine-is-completely-fake/ https://www.vice.com/en/article/88gpd3/russia-zelenskyy-drug-addict https://www.freiheit.org/central-europe-and-baltic-states/attacks-president-zelensky-are-dominating-disinformation https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-zelenskiy-cocaine-idUSL1N31S1RD https://www.strikesource.com/2023/03/14/propaganda-analysis-how-russian-media-portrays-ukraines-zelensky/ https://observers.france24.com/en/europe/20220428-debunked-claims-volodymyr-zelensky-ukraine-cocaine
