RUSSIA on Friday called new US election meddling claims “hysteria” that “makes a mockery” of America after Washington accused Moscow of a continued campaign to influence its public opinion.

“The two-year hysteria over some kind of Russian interference in elections — which never happened — does not only damage bilateral relations but makes a mockery of the whole political system in the US,” foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told journalists. (AFP)
