MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The claims that Russia is responsible for cyberattacks on the United States are folly, many allegations on this topic are falsifications and unprofessional information, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Thursday.
"We have… repeatedly stated… that we categorically deny any accusations against us in this regard, we believe it is complete nonsense," Peskov told reporters.
"Many of the statements in this regard, we believe, are fake and unprofessional information," he said.

Moscow denied the accusations, with Peskov saying that the US allegations were "nonsense."
