The Intelligence Committee of the US House of Representatives did not find evidence of a "collusion" between the election headquarters of US President Donald Trump and the Russian Federation. This is stated in the full version of the declassified report of the committee, promulgated on Friday, April 27. "The committee found no evidence that Trump's campaign headquarters conspired, coordinated and conspired with the Russian government, although the investigation found that Trump's staff and (Hillary) Clinton had taken ill-considered actions," it follows from the document. As an example of such rashness is the meeting of the son of the current owner of the White House, Donald Jr., with the Russian lawyer Natalya Veselnitskaya and the "sporadic communications" of Trump's staff with WikiLeaks. The document states that "the committee found no evidence that Trump's business activity prior to the election campaign created the basis for Moscow's intervention in the presidential election in 2016. The American leader vigorously reacted to the latest news. He immediately noted in his Twitter. "The report of the intelligence committee has just come out. "No evidence" that the Trump campaign "colluded, coordinated or acted in concert with Russia". Campaign Clinton paid for compromising evidence received from Russia - Wow! Total Witch Hunt! Must end now! "-" prochirikal "Trump. Meanwhile, the committee "found" Russian footprints in the American elections, traditionally got Russia Today. "The Russian government has used RT to advance its campaign of negative influence during the presidential elections of 2016 in the United States," the report said.. It is alleged that since 2015 Moscow allegedly worked to disrupt these elections, using social networks, cyberattacks and state-owned media. The head of the commission of the Federation Council on protection of state sovereignty of the Russian Federation Andrey Klimov commented on the published report on RIA Novosti.
He believes that "the only thing that American congressmen are now concerned about is the November elections, and they will use the Russian theme in the election campaign". And after that this theme will subside.
He also suspected the Americans of plagiarism, in the simple rewriting of the senator's report, in which they only rearranged the seats of the Russian Federation and the United States. In his opinion, Washington will continue to use the "Russian threat" in the international arena, which allows US politicians to successfully master the state budget. Recall that now in the United States, under the leadership of Special Prosecutor Robert Muller, another investigation is underway regarding the alleged links between Trump's campaign headquarters and Russia.
