According to Snopes, an American myths and rumors factcheck website analysis, Russian-owned websites copy-paste pro-Russian propaganda about Russia's alleged aims "to prevent pointless bloodshed among by Ukrainian soldiers", mentioning 149.200 'Volga', a frequency which is said to offer Ukrainian soldiers a chance to surrender to Russian forces.[1] In 2024 when French President Emmanuel Macron made statements about the possibility of French troops being deployed to Ukraine, posters began to appear near the French Embassy in Moscow and public transport stations around the embassy. The posters depicted an image of the commander of the French SS division Charlemagne, Edgar Puaud and text in both French and Russian which read: "Frenchmen, do not repeat the mistakes of your ancestors; their fate is well-known" followed by "Call Volga 149.200".[2]
