Russian President Vladimir Putin, we recall, rejected the proposal of the Foreign Ministry on a symmetrical response to the sanctions announced on Thursday by the administration of Barack Obama - to declare 35 American diplomats "undesirable persons." About it says in a published letter on the Kremlin website.
“Reserving the right to retaliate, we will not stoop to the level of“ kitchen ”, irresponsible diplomacy, and we will build further steps to restore Russian-American relations on the basis of policies that will be implemented by the Presidential Administration D. Trump,” statementpublished on the website of the Kremlin.
Earlier, the US government made a decision send Russian diplomats from 35, explaining that members of the diplomatic mission acted "not according to their diplomatic or consular status." US President Barack Obama also imposed sanctions against 5 of Russian organizations, including the FSB and the GRU, writes Новая газета.
The 2 of the Russian-owned facility in the states of Maryland and New York, which, according to Obama, were used by Russians for intelligence purposes, will be closed.
This decision was made due to the fact that in the USA they are sure: Russian hackers committed large cyber attacks on the American party on 2, encroaching on the independence of the American electoral system. Hackers allegedly transmitted information from American organizations to the election headquarters of Donald Trump.
