[REGNUM] At present, Moscow is expecting an explanation from Washington about the US interference in Russian affairs. This was announced to reporters on September 15 by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov following a joint meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers, the Council of Defense Ministers and the Committee of Secretaries of Security Councils of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) in Dushanbe.
According to the Russian Foreign Minister, the concrete facts of such interference were passed on to the American Ambassador, John Sullivan , who "took this document as information," which he promised to verify.
"True, he said that they had no information that someone was violating Russian law, but the information was passed on to him, they are quite serious. That's all. We are waiting for an answer from our American colleagues why this is happening," Lavrov said.
Note that on September 10, Sullivan was summoned to the Russian Foreign Ministry, where he was told that interference in the internal affairs of our country was unacceptable.

"Attacks have now increased, they have increased manifold in the information-political sphere. They will be continued, but we are ready for that," Zakharova said.
As an example, the diplomat mentioned the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR), which "stirred up a scandal" over an alleged non-admission of its observer mission to the election. Zakharova reiterated that Russia had asked it to send 50 observers to monitor the State Duma elections instead of 500. However, the mission opted against sending the observers.
