My newest article now on Substack. From Ukraine to Latin America. Cartels and Asymmetry of Modern Warfare. READ FULL ARTICLE ➡️ https://t.co/XuQho1FQxm Executive Summary The article analyzes cognitive warfare in the Russia-Ukraine conflict and its extension to Latin America, highlighting the narrative asymmetry. Ukraine and the West have promoted influence campaigns (on social media, diplomacy and moralisation) that present support for Kiev as “the right side of history”, while Russia is framed as an aggressor and source of disinformation. The Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) warned on August 17, 2026 of an alleged Western plan to accuse Moscow of arming cartels in Mexico, Colombia and Venezuela, in order to deteriorate Russia’s relations with the region and force anti-Russian alignments. This accusation is part of a broader dispute of narratives, in which the West prioritizes China (and to a lesser extent Russia) as a rival in Latin America, while accusing Moscow of anti-Ukrainian disinformation campaigns. On the ground, the text notes the documented (albeit limited) presence of Mexican and Colombian fighters in Ukraine, including learning drone tactics (UAVs) that could be transferred to groups such as the CJNG. It warns of the risk that these capabilities will escalate into sabotage of critical infrastructure. It also questions the control of weapons sent by the West to Ukraine and recommends that Latin American intelligence services evaluate all sources independently, without subordinating themselves to the Western narrative. #Ukraine #Zelenskyy #LatinAmerica #CJNG #SinaloaCartel #JaliscoNewGenerationCartel #SVR #Medvedev #Mexico #Colombia #NationalSecurity #UAV #AsymmetricWarfare #CognitiveWarfare #Russia #Moscow
