Intelligence Sharing In Multinational Military Operations And Complicity Under International Law, Marko Milanovic
Intelligence Sharing In Multinational Military Operations And Complicity Under International Law, Marko Milanovic
International Law Studies
This article examines the international legal framework applicable to intelligence sharing in multinational military operations, with a particular focus on complicity scenarios.

The phenomenon of election meddling, however, extends well beyond the United States to such countries as Austria, Estonia, France, Germany, Hungary, …
