Pushkov commented on the accusations Flynn in contact with a Russian student

MOSCOW, 19 Mar — RIA Novosti. Senator Alexei Pushkov called a new stage of paranoia, the prosecution of former national security Advisor of the USA Michael Flynn in contact with a Russian student, which he did not notify the Pentagon.

Previously, the newspaper the Wall Street Journal, citing sources wrote that Michael Flynn has not notified the Pentagon that he talked to a Russian student in the Cambridge security workshop in the UK in 2014 when he was appointed Director of the Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of defense.

“In the United States retired Flynn has been charged with “contact” (!) a citizen of Russia: he spoke to her at some reception. A new level of paranoia,” wrote Pushkov in his microblog on Twitter.
