Medvedev: Russia cannot influence result of US elections
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev tells Channel 2 that Moscow is not trying to win the US elections for Donald Trump and that it would be impossible to influence the outcome of the vote.
“It seems to the outside observer that you are making a keen attempt at assisting Donald Trump in his campaign for the White House,” Channel 2’s Yonit Levy asks the prime minister in an interview in Moscow, days before he is due to arrive in Israel.
The question elicits laughter from Medvedev, who says in response: “I think it is impossible to sway the results of the US elections. A few days ago, President Putin said, and rightly so, that that the US is not a banana republic that you can pressure and determine who will be president.”
