According to Ino TV with reference to The Times, the British authorities believe that the “Russian threat” requires strengthening London’s influence in certain regions.
According to Carter, developing states need to be made "more West-oriented."
“They make good use of opportunities that are very easy to deny. They know how to manipulate the information environment and state their version of the truth. They are very smart in cyberspace, and it seems to me that they can also make countries feel that Russia is probably a better ally or better bet in terms of support than the West, ”said the head of the British General Staff.
At the same time, Carter noted that he did not see a definite solution to the problem, and also called on the West to work effective methods of protecting the truth.
