Mistral AI, OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT and Anthropic\u2019s Claude, a series of 75 questions in three language to gauge how likely the models are to promote Russian propaganda or how filter out Kremlin talking points.<\/p>\n<p>The work covered 14 themes, such as oft-repeated incorrect claims that Russia was legitimately evacuating Ukrainian children from war zones and that NATO broke promises not to expand east after German reunification.<\/p>\n<p>The answers were then scored on a scale of 1-5, with 5 indicating a balanced response and 1 indicating an amplification of misleading or false claims.<\/p>\n<p>All four Mistral versions measured in the study scored less than 40% in their ability to detect Kremlin lines across all areas analysed. The study also found that at least 12 of Mistral\u2019s answers referred to sanctioned sources widely considered to be purveyors of pro-Russian reporting, such as Russia Today or Sputnik News.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-widget-related\" data-stories-id data-event=\"widget_related\">\n<div class=\"c-widget-related__title\"><b class=\"c-widget-related__title__text\" lang=\"en\">Related<\/b><\/div>\n<ul class=\"c-widget-related__list\">\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\">Airbus and BMW strike deals with France\u2019s Mistral to bring AI to defence and safety systems<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>Mistral is often seen as Europe\u2019s main competitor to US giants Anthropic and Claude, but this is not the first time that it has failed testing for Russian propaganda.<\/p>\n<p>An April 2026 analysis by NewsGuard, a US rating system for news sites, found that Mistral\u2019s Le Chat repeated Russian falsehoods 50% of the time in English and 56.6% of the time in French.

The study also found that at least 12 of Mistral\u2019s answers referred to sanctioned sources widely considered to be purveyors of pro-Russian reporting, such as Russia Today or Sputnik News.Mistral is often seen as Europe\u2019s main competitor to US giants Anthropic and Claude, but this is not the first time that it has failed testing for Russian propaganda.An April 2026 analysis by NewsGuard, a US rating system for news sites, found that Mistral\u2019s Le Chat repeated Russian falsehoods 50% of the time in English and 56.6% of the time in French.\u00a0They include falsehoods about Russia, Iran and China.According to Newsguard, the Pravda network or Portal Kombat, a network of websites composed of 370 sites, including 286 active as of April 2026, \u201cseems to be aimed at flooding search engines and responses of AI chatbots with Russian propaganda\u201d and is the likely culprit behind Mistral\u2019s pro-Russian slant.Euronews Next reached out to Mistral for this story but did not receive an immediate reply.Earlier this year the French government signed an agreement with Mistral to integrate its AI technologies into the armed forces, directorates, services and public entities.\u00a0The company has also signed deals with major defence manufacturer Airbus, car company BMW and the government of Luxembourg.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/next\/2026\/06\/16\/new-report-raises-concerns-over-russian-propaganda-spread-by-europes-flagship-ai-company-m&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/80\/07\/66\/1200x675_cmsv2_4077ac0e-6d86-511d-9197-fdea4ed17d9c-9800766.jpg&#8221;] Haiti UN chief in Haiti as gang violence soars, displaced people hit 1.5m Tech News Meta keeps monetising disinfo accounts on Facebook despite controversy Europe News At least 58 states and territories contaminated by landmines, UN says Europe News Yatsenyuk : US support could be Ukraine&#8217;s &#8216;trump card&#8217; against Russia Haiti UN [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-1994103","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1994103","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1994103"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1994103\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1994103"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1994103"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1994103"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
