Hysteria, which is observed in official Washington and the media, hurting relations between Russia and the United States. Such opinion expressed press Secretary of the President Dmitry Peskov on Monday, March 6, in an interview with CNN, answering a question about Moscow’s intervention in the American presidential election.
“We have no intention to intervene. The only thing I can tell you that all the hysteria in official Washington and the American media harms the future of bilateral relations,” — said Peskov.
“It is time someone in the United States to think: if we’re weak that any country can interfere in our internal Affairs and to influence our electoral system?”, — added the official representative of the Kremlin.
Earlier on March 6, Peskov urged not to associate Moscow with the domestic policy of the United States. “I do not need somehow to associate us with domestic U.S. issues,” he said.
Moscow has repeatedly stressed that it is not interfering in the internal Affairs of the United States. February 16, Peskov declined to comment on the initiative of a number of American congressmen to investigate the administration contacts trump with Russia. “All of this is absolutely an internal affair of the USA”, — said the representative of the Kremlin.
At the same time, Washington has repeatedly accused Moscow of meddling in the electoral campaign in the United States. In the Kremlin these charges are consistently rejected.
