The UK and other European states are planning to expose new examples of Russian disinformation as they pursue a more assertive response to alleged interference by the Kremlin in Western elections at a meeting of the European Political Community this week.

With some 45 leaders set to be hosted by new British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Thursday, European allies are preparing the publication of further evidence that Russia has sought to undermine democracies across Europe, according to people familiar with the matter and documents seen by Bloomberg.
