The British authorities recognized: no trace of the "influence of Russia" on the political campaigns in the United Kingdom was found. The Cabinet of Ministers gave an official response to the report of the Committee on Digital Technologies, Culture, Sport and Media. The document called "Fake News" mentioned the so-called "Russian intervention" in the democratic processes in Britain. In November last year, Theresa May accused Russia of misinformation and interference in elections, the government’s response says. We are talking about "fake news", with the help of which our country allegedly tried to destroy relations between Western countries. "We want to emphasize that the government did not see evidence of the successful use of misinformation by foreign political forces, including Russia, to influence British democratic processes," the statement said on the official website.

Nevertheless, it’s not time to relax, the British authorities stressed. The problem needs to be solved as soon as possible.. Now active work is being carried out "on the formation of a rigid policy" on this issue.. British authorities have called for a fight with "Russian influence".

In late July, published a report, reminds RT. Russia has repeatedly denied unsubstantiated accusations. Thus, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov pointed out earlier that there were no facts supporting the view of “interference,” RIA FAN notes..
