MOSCOW, (Sputnik) - Ukraine’s plot to assassinate Russian President Vladimir Putin was financed by the United States, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Sunday.
Ukrainian defense intelligence chief Kyrylo Budanov said on Saturday that Ukraine's secret services had tried but failed to assassinate Putin.

“Yesterday one of the leaders of the Kiev regime, Budanov, admitted that Ukraine’s intelligence was plotting the assassination of the Russian president.

This assassination attempt was being prepared, again, with US money, without which there would be no malicious activities of the Ukrainian intelligence, the Ukrainian armed forces and, general, Bankova Street [government in Kiev],” Zakharova said on Telegram.

The spokeswoman suggested that Washington should use the money it provides to Kiev to fund “the police and other agencies which were established to administer law within the US.”
