A confidential report from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) obtained by Global News is linking Iran, China and Russia to COVID-19 disinformation campaigns.

The service says the countries have spread falsehoods about the virus and conspiracy theories with the objective of increased mistrust and suspicion of western governments and public health authorities.

According to the report, Russia was "actively spreading disinformation blaming the West for the virus" as part of a broader campaign to discredit the West, while China "is focused on a propaganda campaign that protects its own reputation and domestic legitimacy" while touting its pandemic aid abroad.

David Akin explains.
