Great Britain wants the Group of seven most industrially developed countries in the world - G7 to establish a mechanism for the rapid detection of propaganda and disinformation, especially from Russia, British Foreign Minister Dominic Raab said today.

This issue will be discussed at the three-day meeting of the heads of diplomacy of the G7, which starts tomorrow in London.

"We want the G7 to unite and create a mechanism for the rapid detection of lies, propaganda and misinformation. That way, we could immediately deny it and return to the truth," Rab said, adding that this mechanism would apply to the whole world, especially for Russia and China.

According to The Sunday Times, a study funded by British diplomacy found that "Russian trolls" are spreading malicious comments on British media websites "to create the impression that the public supports Russian aggression in Ukraine."

Those comments are then used by the Russian state media to show that British public opinion supports Moksva, the newspaper said, adding that the same "procedure" is used against the media from 14 countries, some of which are members of the G7, namely France, Germany , Italy, Japan and the USA.

That study will be presented at the G7 meeting, Rab added.
