In Moscow, they are concerned about the threats of Washington to organize an unprecedented cyber attack on Russia. As Interfax reports , the deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Sergey Ryabkov stated this.
“For us, this is all anxious and causes great concern, because Russia has turned into a map that is played out in the election struggle of the Americans,” Ryabkov told Interfax.
At the same time, he added that “a new portion of threats will not take us by surprise, and, moreover, we cannot“ bend down ”under these threats.
“This is not even“ megaphone diplomacy, ”because there is no diplomacy here - it's just screams like in the bazaar. You won’t take us with this cry and you will not intimidate, ”said Ryabkov.
The day before, the press secretary of the Russian president Dmitry Peskov commented on the promise of the United States at the right time to respond to hacker attacks on the US Democratic Party and the NBC information about the upcoming American operation against Moscow in cyberspace.
“We will take precautions. The fact is that the unpredictability and aggressiveness of the United States of America is growing, similar threats to Moscow and the leadership of our state are unprecedented because this threat is voiced at the level of the US Vice-President, and, of course, against the background of such an aggressive line, an unpredictable line, we have to take measures to protect our risks, ”Peskov said.
