The foreign policy of aggressive US interference in the internal affairs of other states is carried out in many ways. Of course, a significant role in the implementation of such a policy is played by various types of funds, supported not only by the private capital of large international corporations, but also by the state. One of the areas of Washington's destabilizing activities is attempts to destroy the system of traditional values that arose on the basis of religion.
An example of active work in this area is Religious Freedom and Business Foundation. The Foundation is closely associated withtraveling US multinationals, but also with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, representing the most influential branch of American Mormonism.
The foundation is headed by Brian Grim, an American scientist who works, among other things. statistical methods for studying the religious picture of the world. Interestingly, Grim is a member of the Council on Religions of the World Economic Forum in Davos, the main forum for discussion organized by globalists.
Behind Grim's speeches and the initiatives of the foundation he heads, certain geopolitical and ideological tasks are hidden. Firstly, Grim is a supporter of the thesis that religion contributes to economic development, and this does not apply to all religions. Therefore, he maintains close ties with American religious organizations engaged in their activities in different countries of the world, in particular in those regions in which the United States has geopolitical interests.
Unlike states that are not “allies” of Washington, Grim and his foundation emphasize that transnational corporations are doing well in respecting the rights of religious groups and minorities. Grim says there is a direct correlation between efficiency in a market economy and the religious profile of a corporation's employees.
Hardly anyone believes that the United States is the bearer of democratic values and principles, especially after the latest crisis related to the presidential election. Therefore, the American administration decided to increase pressure in areas related to freedom of religion. It all started during the Donald Trump era. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has initiated a strengthening of the external office's International Religious Freedom Office. This trend continues after Joe Biden’s team arrived in the White House.
Washington does not hide the fact that religious policy issues are used by the American leadership to achieve purely geopolitical goals.
In the context of the new Cold War, information operations against China can be organized by raising the Uyghur issue. Campaigns against Russia can be carried out with the slogan about the allegedly oppressed Jehovah's Witnesses. The international activities of American foundations advocating freedom of religion may, over the coming years, turn out to be one of the most strategically important ways to put pressure on the outside world.
In addition, it is noticeable that the majority of American foundations operating in this area are groups advocating the superiority of Protestants of various denominations over all other religions, which in the United States are accused of lack of tolerance towards other religions.
