Russia is again interfering in the US presidential election, according to the FBI. The country is mainly spreading “disinformation” aimed at Democratic candidate Joe Biden. That said FBI Director Christopher Wray on Thursday during his testimony before a committee before the US House of Representatives.
His main concern is the “steady stream of disinformation,” which Wray fears could erode American citizens’ confidence in the election results.
Several US intelligence agencies concluded that in the previous presidential election in 2016, Russia tried to boost Donald Trump’s campaign and undermine that of his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.
Trump has long contested that claim. Russia has always denied.
In addition to Russia, China and Iran are also trying to interfere in the American elections, according to the FBI.
