The accusations relate to the Kremlin’s attempts to spread disinformation in the US, including through the state-owned Russian media company RT (formerly Russia Today). But other media companies in the United States and abroad are also accused of spreading false information, among them the Social Design Agency.
The information comes at the same time that US Attorney General Merrick Garland is holding a high-level meeting with a special group focused on threats to the US election in November. The group includes, among other things, the federal police, the head of the FBI, Christopher Wray, reports CNN.
