Putin's spokesman slams US ‘Kremlin report’ as attempt to influence presidential election

MOSCOW, January 29. /TASS/. Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday that the upcoming US ‘Kremlin report’ was an attempt to influence the presidential elections in Russia but it would exert no influence.

"We, indeed, believe, that this is a direct and obvious attempt to time some actions for the elections in order to exert influence," the Russian presidential spokesman said, commenting on the so-called Kremlin report the United States was preparing.

"We do not agree with this and we are convinced that it will exert no influence," Peskov said.
