The Kremlin on Monday slammed a hacking report by US spy agencies as baseless and amateurish, saying Moscow is growing tired of denying the Russian government’s involvement in US election meddling.
“These are baseless allegations substantiated with nothing, done on a rather amateurish, emotional level,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists. “We are growing rather tired of these accusations.”
Last week, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) released a report titled ‘Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections.’ The unclassified version of the report did not provide any concrete evidence of Russian interference.
The US intelligence community has accused Russia of aiding the victory of Donald Trump, at the same time acknowledging that “Russian intervention” did not in the end affect the outcome of the elections.
