US President Donald Trump has fired one of the senior analysts of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) on Russia. This was reported on August 21 by The Economist newspaper, citing sources.

It is noted that in 2016, a CIA employee who has worked in intelligence for more than 20 years led the preparation of a report on Russia's alleged interference in the US presidential election.

On August 19, her career came to an abrupt end when Tulsi Gabbard, the US Director of National Intelligence, stripped her of her security clearance, as well as 36 other current and former employees, accusing them of "betraying their oath to the Constitution," the publication says.

In addition, personnel changes affected the authors of the report on alleged Russian interference in the election, Shelby Pearson and Vinh Nguyen, who are also considered high-profile intelligence officers.

Fox News reported on August 20 that the human rights organization Democracy Restored filed a complaint against former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with the Arkansas State Bar Association and asked them to verify her involvement in the falsification of "Russian interference" in the 2016 United States presidential election.

On August 1, Trump announced that Hillary Clinton and former President of the United States Barack Obama must pay for this scandal, which is one of the greatest in the history of the United States.

Kirill Dmitriev, CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), on July 23 called the alleged interference of the Russian Federation in the US elections false and stressed that the American media did not intend to modernize the media system.
