“Discussions about a possible link to the so-called Russian interference in American electoral processes flickered: this is all purely speculation from scratch and another attempt to use“ Russian material ”and“ Russian reason ”in order to build up mistrust in us in the USA,” he quotes Ryabkova RIA News.
He suggested that similar situations may appear as we approach the American election, “where they will again look for Russian traces, some kind of incomprehensible Russian involvement, or our involvement in something.”
According to the diplomat, “the same barrel organ” is scrolling in Washington, but it will break sooner or later, since “Russian tracks” are already tired of everyone.
Earlier, a spokesman for Russian President Dmitry Peskov said that Smolenkov worked in the Kremlin’s administration, but was fired several years ago.
