The former US presidential candidate, who lost the election, stated about the "personal vendetta" of the Russian leader in relation to her. Vladimir Putin took revenge because of the policies of her husband Bill Clinton, when he headed the White House, clarified Hillary Clinton.

"I have no doubt that Putin wanted me to lose and Trump won," she told USA Today in an interview about her new book "What Happened".

The former candidate has no doubt that the campaign headquarters of her rival Donald Trump "and other assistants worked very hard to hide their links with the Russians". "I'm convinced of this," Clinton said..

Putin began a "personal vendetta" in relation to her after the fact that during the presidency of Bill Clinton the countries of Eastern Europe were included in NATO, she added.. At the same time, the former US Secretary of State, in her own words, "never imagined" that the president of Russia "will have the courage to undertake a major covert attack on our democracy, right under our eyes - and that he will get away with it".

There is still much to learn about the "Russian cyber attacks" and the publication of the WikiLeaks website by the electronic letters of the National Committee of the Democratic Party and the ex-head of its headquarters, John Podesta,.

In addition, she took responsibility for the shortcomings of her election campaign. Also, Clinton acknowledged that she misunderstood the depth of anger and disappointment of the electorate.

The interview lasted almost an hour. It was like a ranch in a dining room where a former candidate and her husband, the ex-US president, bought in August next to their larger home in a suburb of Westchester.

Asked if the head of the White House, Donald Trump, would read the book "What Happened", the spokeswoman for the US administration, Sarah Sanders, replied that she was not sure of this. The president knows what happened during the election campaign in 2016. , she assured during the briefing.

Memoirs of ex-presidential candidate from the Democratic Party Hillary Clinton appeared on the shelves of American bookstores September 12. In the book the author described the main points of the election campaign. Among the reasons for her defeat, she called the alleged intervention of Russia in the democratic process in the US.

The US Congress and the FBI are investigating "Moscow's interference" in the presidential elections in the US, which won Donald Trump. The American media regularly report, more often referring to unnamed sources, about the cooperation of Trump's campaign headquarters with Russian officials and businessmen.

Moscow repeatedly denied these accusations. "Absolutely unsubstantiated" was called by their spokesman Dmitry Peskov. There are no facts confirming this, noted Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
