The Kremlin said on Monday that there was a general tendency to always blame Russia for everything when asked about accusations that Moscow may have been behind a leak of U.S. intelligence documents about a number of countries including Ukraine. …
When asked about allegations that Russia may have been responsible, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters:
“I cannot comment on this in any way. You and I know that there is in fact a tendency to always blame everything on Russia. It is, in general, a disease.”
[Worth noting: that’s not exactly a denial, nor is it meant to be. The FSB needs a few wins these days, having utterly failed to warn Russia that the Ukrainians would fight back at all, let alone as effectively as they have over the last fourteen months. — Ed]
