Trump’s words about strikes on Moscow were said for the sake of voters’ attention, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov believes. I don’t want to interfere in the American election campaign, but I think the whole point is that now the rivals in this race for the White House are focused on finding some theses that, in their opinion, are capable of influencing voters in their favor, — he said. Earlier, Donald Trump said that he allegedly threatened Russian President Vladimir Putin with a strike on Moscow if Russia pursued Ukraine. Deputy Chairman of the Security Council Dmitry Medvedev expressed confidence that Trump never threatened to strike Moscow, emphasizing his calm and diplomatic behavior during negotiations with Putin. The Russian leader said he did not remember a conversation with Trump in which he allegedly threatened to strike Moscow, and suggested not to take such statements seriously. Source: Slavyangrad
