欧盟否认美国施加的压力是其从立陶宛举行的那场关于虚假信息问题的会议上撤下自己标志的原因，坚称这一决定实际上与会议组织者制定会议议程的方式有关。
The European Union has denied that pressure from the United States prompted it to withdraw its logo from a major conference on disinformation in Lithuania, insisting that the decision was instead linked to the way organisers had drawn up the programme.
欧盟的外交机构——欧洲对外行动服务局（EEAS）曾是该会议（Disinfo2026）的赞助方；该会议由布鲁塞尔的一家独立非营利组织主办，于周三在维尔纽斯开幕，与会者包括研究虚假信息、网络操纵以及外国干预问题的学者、记者和专家。
The EU’s diplomatic service, the European External Action Service (EEAS), had been a sponsor of Disinfo2026, organised by an independent Brussels non-profit. The conference opened in Vilnius on Wednesday and brings together researchers, journalists and experts working on foreign interference and online manipulation.
然而，在会议召开前不久，EEAS的标志与加拿大和立陶宛的标志一同被从会议相关材料中删除了，这引发了外界的猜测，认为美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的政府可能迫使盟国远离此次会议。
But the EEAS logo was removed from conference material shortly before the event, alongside those of Canada and Lithuania – fuelling reports that US President Donald Trump’s administration had pressed allies to distance themselves from the gathering.
欧洲对外行动服务局的发言人克里斯蒂安·维甘德（Christian Wigand）周四在布鲁塞尔对记者表示：“这一决定是基于会议议程的内容作出的。”当被反复问及华盛顿方面是否施加了压力时，维甘德仅表示：“标志被移除是因为会议组织者对议程的安排方式。”他并未详细说明具体原因。
“The decision was taken in view of the programme,” EEAS spokesperson Christian Wigand told reporters in Brussels on Thursday. Asked repeatedly whether pressure from Washington had played a role, Wigand said the logo was removed “because of the way the organisers had designed the programme”. “That is the reason,” he said, without going into details.
这场争议的核心在于会议中有一个讨论环节，该环节探讨了美国本身是否可能对欧洲构成虚假信息传播、网络操纵及外国干预方面的威胁。有媒体报道称，美国官员曾就多个国家对该会议的支持情况与相关政府进行过沟通，尤其是对名为“美国作为虚假信息传播的威胁：如何应对”的讨论环节表示反对。
US as disinformation risk The controversy centres on a conference session examining whether the United States itself could constitute a threat to Europe in terms of disinformation and foreign information manipulation and interference, or FIMI. newspaper reported on Wednesday that US officials had approached several governments over their support for the event, with Washington objecting in particular to a panel titled “USA as an FIMI threat: adapt, acknowledge, push back”.
维甘德拒绝确认是否与美国官员有过接触，并表示自己不会对外交层面的沟通进行评论。他仅表示，会议组织者选择以某种方式呈现某些讨论内容，而这些内容并不符合欧盟的官方立场。
Wigand declined to say whether contacts had taken place with US officials, telling reporters that he did not comment on diplomatic exchanges. He said only that organisers had chosen to present some discussions “in a way that does not correspond to the EU’s official positions”.
特朗普削减对美资助媒体的行为对新闻自由造成打击，欧盟发出警告。特朗普政府日益主张，那些以打击虚假信息为名的举措，实际上可能演变为审查制度或对言论自由的限制。
Trump's cuts to US-funded media a blow to press freedom, EU warns The Trump administration has increasingly argued that initiatives presented as combating disinformation can amount to censorship or restrictions on freedom of expression.
加拿大也重新评估了其参与多个小组的情况，其中包括原计划由其主持的北极地区虚假信息问题小组，理由是“内容发生了变更”。
Canada also reviewed its involvement in several panels, including one it had been due to chair on disinformation in the Arctic, citing “changes made to the content”.
尽管如此，渥太华仍派出了三名代表前往维尔纽斯，并强调其参与与否的决定均基于加拿大的利益和优先事项。与此同时，法国则保留了其在该活动中的名称和标志。
Ottawa nevertheless sent three representatives to Vilnius and stressed that decisions over its participation were taken according to Canadian interests and priorities. France, meanwhile, kept its name and logo on the event.
法国官员向法新社表示，对此次会议的支持早在几个月前就已决定，且“没有理由改变”这一承诺。巴黎方面否认面临任何“压力或威胁”，并强调主办方对活动议程拥有完全的控制权。
French officials told AFP news agency that support for the conference had been decided several months ago and that there was “no reason to change” that commitment. Paris denied facing any “pressure or threats” and stressed that the organisers retained full control over the programme.
“新的战场”：法国在网络虚假信息问题上展开斗争。法国已成为虚假信息问题的前线。巴黎正面临来自外国信息操控的日益严峻挑战，尤其是与俄罗斯相关的活动。
‘A new battleground’: France takes its fight against disinformation online France on disinformation front line Paris faces an increasingly intense challenge from foreign information manipulation, particularly linked to Russia.
欧盟外交与安全政策高级代表办公室于三月发布的最新年度威胁评估报告指出，在2025年有记录的外国信息操控（FIMI）事件中，法国是全球第二受攻击最严重的国家，仅次于乌克兰。
The EEAS’s latest annual threat assessment, published in March, identified France as the second most targeted country worldwide for documented FIMI incidents in 2025 – behind only Ukraine.
欧盟外交部门记录到针对乌克兰的事件有112起，涉及法国的有107起，分别高于摩尔多瓦的94起和德国的71起。
The EU diplomatic service recorded 112 incidents targeting Ukraine and 107 involving France, ahead of Moldova with 94 and Germany with 71.
在更广泛的欧洲信息威胁格局中，俄罗斯被明确指认为最主要的国家行为体。
Russia was by far the principal state actor identified in the wider European information threat landscape.
法国当局多次警告称，与俄罗斯有关联的网络试图利用政治和社会分歧，削弱公众对公共机构的信任，并降低对乌克兰的支持。
French authorities have repeatedly warned that Russian-linked networks seek to exploit political and social divisions, undermine confidence in public institutions and weaken support for Ukraine.
这些手段无所不用其极，从虚假新闻网站网络和捏造的社交媒体账户，到经过篡改的视频和深度伪造内容。随着2027年总统选举的临近，法国政界人士和该国的选举制度正日益成为攻击目标。
The tactics have ranged from networks of fake news websites and fabricated social media accounts to manipulated videos and deepfakes. French political figures and the country’s electoral system have increasingly been targeted ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
