?Somehow when we are blamed, no one asked for facts,? Lavrov said at the Munich Security Summit on Saturday. He said Russia had ?many years ago? initiated work at the United Nations to discuss information security. ?I have seen no facts, there were just some accusations that we tried to hack some Democratic party website; that?s happening in France, Germany, Italy,? Lavrov said. After Donald Trump won the election in November, the U.S. intelligence community issued an assessment that Russia sought to sway the election in his favor through the hacking of the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton?s campaign staff. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov pushed back against accusations that Russian hackers meddled in last year?s U.S. presidential election, saying no one had put forward any proof and former President Barack Obama?s administration ignored repeated overtures to discuss cyber-security norms.
