Lots of Americans, they do think that yes, Russian hackers are everywhere. Russian hackers are in every fridge, Russian hackers are in every iron and so on and so forth. But this is not true. Those are fake news and this is slander.

It's not about preferring someone, it's about whose ideas are more close to you and whose ideas are more welcomed in Russian public opinion. Let's not forget about public opinion in our country. It's very influential and it's very powerful.

Any blaming that Russia could have been interfering in domestic affairs of the United States is slander. And it has no evidence at all.

We would always disagree with any words like aggression in our address.

Russia has never been an aggressor. Russia has always been a country contributing to global stability and security. A country heavily involved in combating terror.

Telephone contacts, of course, cannot give you the perfect picture of each other's personality. But at least, during those contacts, and before the election, we've seen some tweets by Mr. Trump saying that, that he was in favor of getting in dialogue with the Russian Federation to try to understand each other's concerns.

President Putin and President Trump-they both insist on their priority as national interest.
