Already on Thursday, the administration of Barack Obama may announce a new sanction against Russia. This was reported today by CNN. Channel sources claim that the sanctions will include economic restrictions and diplomatic measures that the Obama administration considers a proportionate response to hacker attacks organized by the Russian authorities.

Also sources CNN We are confident that the Obama administration will also engage in some “secret actions.”

Recall that, according to US intelligence, it was Russia that organized the US hacker attacks in order to prevent the election of Hillary Clinton and undermine the credibility of the US electoral system. The CIA had previously stated that Russian intelligence services had transmitted information to the sites of WikiLeaks and DCLeaks.

The scandal began in October, when the Obama administration accused Russia of conducting a large-scale campaign to interfere in the elections. It was also about hacking computers in the National Committee of the US Democratic Party.

Already after the election, December 10 The Washington Post reported on the secret CIA report: it said that Russia had intervened in the electoral process to help trump win.

December 16 Barack Obama said that the hacker attacks stopped after he asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to stop them, threatening that serious consequences await Russia if the attacks do not stop.

According to Senator Lindsay Graham, the new sanctions will be personally affected by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
