Global Warning: Russia's Election Interference Tactics Exposed by US Intelligence

The United States has issued a warning to nearly 100 countries, stating that Russian intelligence is intensifying its efforts to undermine democracies by spreading doubts about the legitimacy of elections and vote-counting. The U.S. believes that Russia is capitalizing on the success of amplifying lies about election fraud during the 2020 U.S. presidential election. The warning comes ahead of next year's U.S. presidential elections and other democratic elections worldwide. The U.S. has identified 11 contests in nine countries where Russia engaged in a concerted effort to undermine confidence in election outcomes. The U.S. recommends countering these influence operations with fact-based messaging, public disclosure of efforts to undermine democracy, and possible sanctions or removal of bad actors.
