MOSCOW, April 5 (Reuters) – The Kremlin on Friday rejected “unfounded accusations” from Emmanuel Macron, who suggested that Russia could disrupt the Paris Olympic Games, “including in informational terms”.
The French president spoke of a Russian smear campaign against the 2024 Olympics on Thursday.
“These are absolutely unfounded accusations. (…) We often hear them, but they are never supported by any proof or argument. We do not accept these kinds of accusations under any circumstances,” he told the press. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.
