Global Warning: Russia's Election Interference Tactics Exposed and Shared with 100 Countries

The United States has shared a U.S. intelligence assessment with over 100 countries, revealing that Russia is using spies, social media, and state-run media to undermine public faith in democratic elections worldwide. The report states that senior Russian government officials, including the Kremlin, view these influence operations as effective. The success of amplifying disinformation about the 2020 U.S. election and the COVID-19 pandemic has encouraged Russia to intensify its election influence operations. The report recommends countries take measures such as sanctions, information sharing, expulsions of Russian spies, and travel bans to mitigate Russian election interference.
