DISINFO: Moscow did not interfere in US elections
SUMMARY
Washington has repeatedly accused Russia of interfering in the US presidential elections that took place in 2016 by means of organized piracy operations on social media networks. Moscow denied these allegations, stressing that it was not involved in such operations.
RESPONSE
Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation denying Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election.
Before the Mueller report was published, Russian meddling in the 2016 election had already been established by US intelligence agencies.
Regarding the exploitation of social media to interfere in the election, 13 Russian citizens have been criminally charged in the United States for conspiring to “sow discord in the U.S. political system”, including during the 2016 presidential election.
Three Russian companies were also indicted by a federal grand jury. One of them is the infamous Internet Research Agency, a troll factory based in St. Petersburg.
