Russian President Vladimir Putin denied Tuesday that Russia interfered in last year's presidential election in the United States, describing the allegations as "simply rumors" that are being leveraged for political reasons in the United States.
"From now on we will respond with force to any aggressor or any breach of red lines from whoever it is and America knows our ability to respond well," read a statement by the joint command centre comprising the forces of President Assad's allies
The United States has expelled 35 Russian diplomats as punishment for alleged interference in last month's presidential elections, giving them 72 hours to leave the country.
The Kremlin has described the claims by the United States that Russia hacked into its official emails, as "indecent", urging President Obama and the CIA “to either stop talking about this or finally present some sort of proof."
