UK accuses ‘Russian actors’ of trying to interfere in 2019 election

LONDON — The British government accuses “Russian actors” of seeking to disrupt last year’s general election by circulating leaked trade documents between London and Washington.

“On the basis of extensive analysis, the government has concluded that it is almost certain that Russian actors sought to interfere with the 2019 general election through the online amplification of illicitly acquired and leaked government documents,” Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab says.
