Putin calls accusation of cyberattacks against US 'farcical'
Fox News
Russian President Vladimir Putin pushed back against claims that his government is behind cyberattacks against the U.S. or election interference efforts, claiming that the allegations against Russia are “farcical” and lack evidentiary support.
"It’s becoming farcical," Putin said. "We have been accused of all kinds of things. Election interference, cyberattacks, and so on and so forth, and not once – not once, not one time – did they bother to produce any kind of evidence or proof. Just unfounded accusations." Former special counsel Robert Mueller's report included detailed allegations that the Kremlin-backed Internet Research Agency used fake identities to carry out disinformation campaigns on social media and through grassroots activism.More Related News
