Opponents of the United States, including Russia, China, Iran and Cuba, are likely to try to influence the presidential election on November 5, Reuters reports, citing high-ranking US intelligence officials, quoted by News.bg.
During a briefing on possible outside influence on the election, intelligence officials said the results could be disputed. They noted that Russia and Iran have already tried to influence voters, while China is focused on campaigning for Congress.
Russia is trying to sway the public against US pro-Ukraine policies, while China is seeking to influence candidates it sees as a threat to its interests in Taiwan. Cuba is reportedly targeting Latin American voters through social media.
The intelligence community emphasizes that America's voting systems and election workers are the best prepared for potential incidents to date.
