News:Politics
In this in-depth episode of the Narativ, we take a deep dive into how Vladimir Putin, Russia's dominating president, influences not just his own country but democracies across the globe. Starting with an analysis of Putin's recent, and questionable, win in the Russian presidential election, we light up the variations from democratic norms.
Using the resurgence of Paul Manafort in the United States Republic Party as an example, we discuss the frightening reality of potential foreign influence, thus revealing the unsettling truth about Russia's interference in global politics. We don't spare any details, from sinister (and planned) infiltrations to the unabashed spread of disinformation.
We also assess how Putin is trying, and succeeding, to destabilise democratic institutions worldwide and the harmful repercussions of his unchecked influence. As we traverse this uncertain path, we urge our listeners to stay vigilant and protect democracy.
