According to him, “the United States has again shaken off the dust with the story of Russia’s alleged interference in the elections in 2016, 2020, and they are threatening with new sanctions and other punishments”.
“But the question is, was there any interference? Of course, there was, but the that interference was implemented by the main allies of the United States <…> those politicians in Europe who did not show themselves with calls to the American people to make the right choice”, – Grushko said.
Another diplomat also drew attention to “the characteristics and epithets that were awarded to US presidential candidate Donald Trump”.
“All this was done in prime time for a multimillion audience. And when, having won, Donald Trump arrived in Brussels in May for the NATO summit, they stood in a line and were very respectful”, – Grushko said.
