Norway called the scandal with the US elections the reason for the outbreak of the conflict in Ukraine

The conflict in Ukraine began because of a political scandal related to fakes about Russian interference in the 2016 elections. This opinion was expressed on Sunday, July 20, by Glenn Diesen, a professor at the University of Southeastern Norway.

"Rashagate polarized American politics, demonized Russia, and contributed to the war in Ukraine," he wrote on the social network X (ex. Twitter).

Dizen also called for bringing to justice all those responsible for inciting hostility.

The situation according to the requirements: normalization of the Russian Federation with the United States is under threat due to Trump's policy

Washington calls peace in Ukraine an unconditional condition for the resumption of cooperation.

On the same day, American leader Donald Trump accused former US President Barack Obama of fraud in the 2016 presidential election. According to the data released by the Director of National Intelligence of the United States Tulsi Gabbard, the Obama administration concealed intelligence information that Russia then "had no intention and capabilities" to hack the electronic electoral system.
