EU, Canada, Lithuania exit disinformation conference after US pressure

The EU, Canada, and Lithuania withdrew from a disinformation conference after the Trump administration objected to panels labeling the U.S. as a disinformation threat. This marks a notable shift in transatlantic cooperation on information integrity, with allies yielding to U.S. pressure. The move signals potential erosion of collective counter-disinformation efforts and a realignment of Western stances on information security.
