American counterintelligence ranked Russia as the main threats to the United States
In the United States, a new counterintelligence strategy for 2020–2022 has been adopted, which poses five key tasks for the American counterintelligence at once. The document calls Russia and China the first and main threat to the United States. The strategy was published last week by the National Center for Counterintelligence and Security on Wednesday.

Other traditional threats to national security have traditionally included Cuba, Iran, and North Korea, as well as the Hezbollah movement, the Islamic State and Al Qaeda banned in Russia. In addition, the strategy refers to transnational criminal communities and other organized crime groups.
Meanwhile, in the new draft budget for next year, the White House has planned to counter Russia $ 700 million and another 24 million to combat "Russian propaganda and misinformation." This is stated in a document published on the White House website.
