I get this is supposed to be a debate, but the FBI never rolled tanks into Poland or Czechoslovakia. The FBI never annexed the peninsula of a foreign country, then set up fraud elections to make it look organic.

Most importantly, the US largely ended it's support of anti-democratic forces post-cold war. The KGB has no such intention.

Specifically voiced support for the pro-democratic opposition leader that arguably won the election.

> the Middle East

Supported democratic reforms in Egypt against a long time pro-US dictator in Mubarak. Supported Syria's right to self-determination to the point of fighting with FSA for years.

> Bolivia

Bolivia is an interesting case, the opposition claimed fraud but i've seen no evidence of it. A black eye for sure to come down against the results of their election without proof.

The American KGB is called the CIA. The FBIs purview is domestic affairs.
