Abstract

[The cornerstone of a democracy is the right for all citizens to have a voice in public affairs. However, when the thoughts behind that voice arise from maliciously distorted information, that cornerstone begins to erode itself. From aggression in Ukraine, MH17 to BLM, Russian information warfare undermines and misuses democratic principles along with institutions globally with a deluge of disinformation aimed at dividing and conquering. Democratic institutions, from the UN Security Council to national parliaments, are utilized to spread disinformation. This paper aims to examine Russia’s misuse of democratic institutions and principles, as well as available countermeasures.]
