Reports that the EC president\u2019s jet was forced to circle for an hour before landing in Bulgaria have not been verified<\/strong><\/p>\n

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman <\/em>Maria Zakharova has dismissed “preposterous”<\/em> claims that Russia was linked to an alleged attempt to jam the GPS signal of a private jet carrying European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.<\/p>\n

According to Brussels, the alleged incident is claimed to have taken place during a trip von der Leyen took to Bulgaria. Her flight was reportedly “forced to circle for an hour” <\/em>though no data has been released to corroborate the claims.<\/p>\n

At a press briefing on Thursday, Zakharova said that Moscow will continue to combat “the West’s web of lies”<\/em> aimed at discrediting Russia on the world stage.<\/p>\n

Zakharova pointed to data from the flight-tracking website Flightradar24, which indicated that von der Leyen’s jet “reported good GPS signal quality from take-off to landing.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Bulgarian Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov said on Tuesday that the incident would not be investigated, stating that “these disturbances are neither hybrid nor cyber threats,”<\/em> according to Politico.<\/p>\n

The claims were meant to distract the public from “actual events,”<\/em> Zakharove said, including problems with the EU’s economy and the recent summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in Tianjin, China, which concluded on Monday.<\/p>\n

“It is not just paranoia, but a cynical plot to distract their own population from the EU’s worsening economic situation and from considering the real culprits behind the European crisis – the irresponsible, kleptocratic political elites of the European Union,”<\/em> she said.<\/p>\n
