Summary Iran's ability to shape the information environment and spread the narrative of the United States as an imperialist force--perpetrating violence and instability in Latin America--has grown in recent years. These ongoing and multifaceted campaigns of disinformation and carefully curated messages are coordinated with Russian and Venezuelan state media companies and thousands of allied Internet and social media accounts. Together, these efforts pose a strategic challenge to U.S. interests and regional efforts to promote stability, democratic values, and the rule of law. While less visible than shipping gasoline to the Nicolás Maduro regime and other provocative actions, Iran's advances in Latin America's information space is not any less threatening than its more overt activities.
