WASHINGTON, Oct 20 (Reuters) - The United States on Friday released a U.S. intelligence assessment sent to more than 100 countries that found Moscow is using spies, social media and Russian state-run media to erode public faith in the integrity of democratic elections worldwide.
“This is a global phenomenon,” said the assessment. “Our information indicates that senior Russian government officials, including the Kremlin, see value in this type of influence operation and perceive it to be effective.”
A senior State Department official, briefing reporters on condition of anonymity, said that Russia was encouraged to intensify its election influence operations by its success in amplifying disinformation about the 2020 U.S. election and the COVID-19 pandemic.
You attempted to take this thread on a tangent, period.
It didn’t happen naturally, accidentally or organically. You attempted to force it to happen immediately after the article was posted.
Your intentions are obvious, your motives transparent, your methods clumsy.
I don’t take these things as serious as you, I just see it as people talking on the internet, while I am trying to bring in my point of view.
Yes, which will result in clumsy methods and changing topics.
It is a valid point, but not what the article is about.
Yes, article does bring in how outside countries meddle in other countries election, which is gopd to learn about.
Sorry. I assumed. I couldn’t read the article because it was paywalled and I’ve reached the article limit.
