The meeting of the ministers of the four countries was held in Washington. This was told by a representative of the US State Department Heather Nauert. The parties "agreed to deepen cooperation in order to confront the Russian campaign for misinformation and malicious cyberactivity," she noted.. They also considered "strategies to counter the threat posed by Russia to the security of Europe, as well as Russia's lack of respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of its neighbors," added the official. In addition, the Foreign Ministers of the United States, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia discussed preparations for the Baltic summit in April, in which US President Donald Trump. But Moscow can not agree with Washington on the meeting of Russian and US foreign ministers Sergey Lavrov and Rex Tillerson. Russia sent a request for this on March 2, but there was no response, the Russian embassy in America reported.. At the same time, State Department spokesman Heather Nauert said yesterday that "they did not receive any invitation or call". Earlier, the chairman of the Committee on International Affairs of the House of Representatives of the Congress, Ed Royce assured that America will continue to support the Baltic countries in opposing Russia's attempts to interfere in their affairs. "Our relations with the Baltic States are solid and lasting, strengthened during the Soviet occupation, when the US refused to recognize their inclusion in the USSR," he recalled.. Russia has more than once refuted accusations of attempts to interfere in the affairs of other countries. The US invades foreign political processes around the world and at the same time takes offense at our country, which allegedly affected their elections, said Russian President Vladimir Putin. However, such interference for Moscow, according to him, does not make any sense.
