This Is How Russia Commits "Lawfare" Around The World
*Dan Goure* *Security, * The case of Interpol provides an example. Over the past two decades, the world has been subjected to an unprecedented peacetime assault. Unlike past major conflicts, this one is taking place largely below the level of overt hostilities. It involves the use of non-military or, at the most, paramilitary means to attack an adversary’s critical national assets – the economy, military and security services, infrastructure, political system, and media. As explained by Frank Hoffman, perhaps the best scholar on the subject: “The most distinctive change in the c... more »

If There Were A UK General Election Tomorrow
*Statista: **UK voting intention * At the fourth attempt, prime minister Johnson's wish for a general election was finally granted by Parliament this week. So what do the most recent voting intention polls say? When looking at the four selected for this chart, the Conservatives are well ahead, with an average lead of 14 points over Labour.
