Russia has falsified evidence of Ukraine’s intervention in the US election - NYT

Russia conducted a campaign in order to present evidence of Ukrainians' interference in the American elections in 2016. About this writes The New York Times with reference to sources.

According to the publication, Russia is trying to shift responsibility for interfering in the American elections from itself to Ukraine, in particular, we are talking about hacking the postal servers of the Democratic Party. According to the newspaper, in fact, the Ukrainian influence was minimal - Trump's candidacy in Ukraine was criticized little.

Information on the intervention of Ukraine was transmitted by Russian intelligence officers to Russian and Ukrainian oligarchs and businessmen who later transferred it to American journalists.

According to NYT sources, Russia led this campaign for several years to present the Ukrainian authorities in a “very bad light”. As a result, this information reached the environment of Trump, who discussed Ukrainian interference with Russian President Vladimir Putin and President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky.
