“A recording of Michal Šimečka discussing buying votes before Slovakia’s 2023 election was authentic”
Granskad September 22, 2026
Bedömning
False. The recording was fabricated and assessed as AI-generated. There was no authentic conversation, no evidence any votes were bought, and no evidence any count was manipulated. It was released during the pre-election moratorium, when rebuttal was hardest.
