Even then, political motivation in itself does not make it inaccurate. It’s easy to see why a liberal democracy supposed to defend liberty across the globe would be interested in making facts accessible. Facts and education are the best way to fight obscurantism and totalitarianism. It’s also easy to see why a regime sliding back towards autocracy would have no interest in doing it. If they were competent, they could have continued pretending they cared and actually use it as a propaganda tool. Same with Radio Liberty and the others.

Who is supposed to defend liberty across the globe? Do you think the US has been doing that and should be doing that? The point of OP was that the facts from the CIA can’t be trusted. That they can lie about the facts.
