US Acknowledges Policy of 'Regime Pressure' on Other Countries

The Director of National Intelligence of the United States, Tulsi Gabbard, has admitted that Washington has been involved in changing the governance systems of other nations for many years.

“We have engaged in regime change, trying to impose our governmental model on other countries. We have been involved in conflicts whose essence we often did not even understand, and we have ended them with more enemies than allies,” Gabbard stated.

According to her, this policy has persisted for far too long in the United States. Gabbard had previously proposed measures against the leaking of state secrets, suggesting mandatory polygraph tests for certain employees of intelligence agencies. She proposed that such tests could be combined with counterintelligence investigations.
