2019-03-06 | The Long History of US-Russian ‘Meddling’ | The Nation

'During the second Cold War, from 1948 to 1988, the “meddling” was expanded and institutionalized. '

'That’s approximately 85 years of US–Russian Cold War in a hundred years of relations and, not surprisingly, a lot of meddling on both sides, even leaving aside espionage and spies. '

'How should we feel about US-Russian “meddling” of the kind that involves dissemination of their respective information and points of view?'

'Washington openly supported, politically and financially, the pro-American faction in Russian politics, as did American mainstream media coverage. '

'For context, recall that such meddling is an integral part of Cold War and that there have been three Cold Wars between America and Russia during the past one hundred years. '
