Russian Ambassador Also Met With Clinton's People

Vladimir Putin’s spokesman claimed over the weekend that the infamous Russian ambassador also met with a number of Hillary Clinton's people during last year's presidential campaign. The revelation, if true, should cause the Clinton camp no small amount of embarrassment and heartburn after all of the hyperventilating they've done over team Trump's alleged ties to Russia.

Dmitry Peskov casually broke the news to CNN “GPS” host Fareed Zakaria during an interview Saturday, noting that it is Ambassador Sergey Kislyak’s job to meet with officials on both sides of the political aisle and to foster “bilateral relations.” He also stated that people associated with Clinton during the presidential campaign met with him as well.

“Well, if you look at some people connected with Hillary Clinton during her campaign, you would probably see that he had lots of meetings of that kind,” Peskov said. “There are lots of specialists in politology, people working in think tanks advising Hillary or advising people working for Hillary.”

Peskov insisted that it would be nonsensical to claim that the meetings were an attempt to interfere in the 2016 election.

“But there were no meetings about elections — electoral process -- so if you look at it with intention to demonize Russia, you would probably say that, yes, he was trying to interfere in Hillary's activities. But it would be nonsense, because this is not true,” Peskov said.

Peskov said that Putin never publically voiced support for then-presidential candidate Trump, even if he did prefer him privately.

“You would probably recall that President Putin, during election campaign, had never answered directly a question about his candidate of his support. He kept saying that we will respect a choice of American people,” Peskov told Zakaria. “If you ask him whether he had mentioned the then-candidate Donald Trump, I will answer, yes, he had.”
