“If we talk about cyber threats, then for several years now we have been offering London to establish a professional dialogue to address emerging issues. The British authorities are aware of the Russian National Computer Incident Coordination Center, specially created for this purpose, ”the representative of the embassy told RIA Novosti.
The embassy did not receive any appeals in connection with these incidents, he added.
“Therefore, we are not dealing with genuine concern for computer security, but with a purely propaganda step,” the source said.
July 16, the British cybersecurity service accused the hacker group Cozy Bear, which, according to London, "is almost certainly part of the Russian intelligence services," in attacks on vaccine developers against coronavirus.
Also, the head of the Foreign Office, Dominic Raab, declared Russia's responsibility for cyber attacks.
As the Kremlin noted, UK accusations against Russia are unfounded.
