Russian Meddling in the Americas

Evidence has emerged of wide-spread Russian meddling in the internal political affairs of numerous nations in Southern and Central America. Through funding of right-leaning political organizations and paramilitary groups, bribing, cajoling, and the spread of misinformation, the internal stability of these nations has become increasingly precarious. Lest this covert Russian activity is brought to a halt, experts agree it is inevitable at least some of these nations will become an ideological foothold for Russia in the Americas. It is likely Russian support for these nations will only increase and become more overt if this occurs.
