A detailed fact-check review confirms that the tweet shared by @soldierspeaks on X, which originally reposted a message from @TahaSSiddiqui claiming that Pakistan’s EU GSP+ trade privilege is facing revocation due to a new report on rights abuses and Imran Khan’s political actions, is entirely false and originates from India-linked propaganda networks. The EU has not initiated any such axing procedure; the GSP+ status is subject to periodic reviews, but no concrete move to withdraw it has been made. The cited ‘new report’ is either fabricated or twisted to mislead audiences. This is a classic example of disinformation designed to stir political discord. In my opinion, such fake alerts undermine public trust in credible news sources and harm legitimate discourse on Pakistan-EU trade relations. Readers are urged to rely only on official EU or Pakistani government communications for updates on trade preferences.
