Editor’s Note: The commentary "To Counter Russian Disinformation, Look to Cold War Tactics," by Robert Caruso, was originally published by the Council on Foreign Relations and later posted here on Defense One. Since the article was published, it has been reported that the author has exaggerated his national security credentials. Given what Defense One has learned about Caruso we have decided to remove the article. We take seriously our mission to bring readers authoritative commentary on national security issues and this article did not meet that standard.
