I doubt very much that "freedom of the press" as guaranteed by the First Amendment in the United States applies to the right of foreign nations to engage in propaganda.

I also doubt that any country in has ever accepted foreign propaganda, Manchurian candidates who subvert their electoral processes (speaking generally, not about any particular candidate) and mass manipulation of its populace (the fact the the US has engaged in this sort of activity does not make it right either).
