Russia says US indictment over election meddling is groundless

None

MOSCOW - Russia's foreign ministry said there was no evidence the 12 people indicted by the United States on Friday were linked to military intelligence or hacking into the computer networks of the US Democratic party.

 

The US indictment named 12 Russian officers and indicted them on charges of hacking the computer networks of 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her party.

 

The Russian ministry said the indictment was meant to damage the atmosphere before the summit between the Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump in Helsinki on Monday.
