Description
Russia's War on Everybody And What it Means for You by Keir Giles The actions of Russia have been increasingly visible in recent years, with the 2022 attack on Ukraine sparking a major confrontation between Moscow and the West. However, this is not an isolated incident - Russia has been waging a clandestine war against the West for decades, using a range of tactics including poisoning dissidents, shooting down airliners, interfering in elections, spying, hacking and murdering. These actions are part of a broader strategy to expand Russian power and influence globally. Keir Giles explains how Moscow conducts its campaigns across various domains, from military to cyber power, and how ordinary people can be caught up in these efforts. By shedding light on the daily struggle against Russian hostile activity, this book reveals the full extent of Moscow's ambitions and their impact on governments, businesses, societies and individuals. A new preface adds further insight into Russia's motivations and methods, making this a timely and informative read for anyone interested in understanding the complex dynamics at play.
