On November 6, USIP and IBI Consultants hosted a presentation of a new report on Russian influence campaigns in Latin America. The conversation examined the evolution of Russia’s engagement with Latin American countries under Putin’s rule, the tools the Russian government has used to expand its presence across the continent, and how the United States and international organizations can respond to Russian activities by enhancing commitments to democratic processes and institutions.
