Kiev’s Threats to Blow Up Crimean Bridge Could Be Part of US Election Campaign — Russian MFA – Russian Politics and Diplomacy

MOSCOW, August 3. /TASS/. Ukraine’s threats to blow up the Crimean Bridge may be part of the U.S. presidential election campaign, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told the Izvestia daily.

Commenting on the remarks of the head of Ukrainian military intelligence Kirill Budanov, she emphasized that “surprisingly, he outlined a time frame of several months.”

“Perhaps this is part of the US election campaign, where strong evidence of the achievements of the White House and the Kiev authorities should be presented,” Zakharova continued.

According to her, threats to attack the Crimean Bridge are “pure terrorism.”
