As we watch the coronavirus spread across the entire planet, what impact will it have on human rights, democracy and geopolitics? Already we are seeing various actors use technology and disinformation techniques in their quest to create a global narrative and avoid blame.
Marcus Kolga outlines how Russia, China and Iran are launching disinformation campaigns to blame the US for the coronavirus, weaken citizens trust in democratic institutions, and pass on fraudulent information that will weaken public health and human rights.
Mr. Kolga is a journalist, digital communication strategist and leading Canadian expert on Russian and Central and Eastern European issues. He is a Senior Fellow at the MacDonald Laurier Institute in Canada.
