The Kremlin does not have detailed information about the claims that the American authorities have against Russian citizen Yevgeny Polyanin, and does not comment on the words of US President Joe Biden about fulfilling the promise given to Vladimir Putin to prosecute hackers. This was stated by the press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov, reports “RIA Novosti”.
“We do not have detailed information and in this case do not comment in any way,” he stressed.
Biden after the sanctions against the Russian remembered his words to Putin
On the eve of the United States imposed sanctions against the Ukrainian citizen Yaroslav Vasinsky and the Russian Yevgeny Polyanin, who were charged with cyberattacks on the websites of private companies and government agencies. Their names were included in the SDN (Specially Designated Nationals And Blocked Persons List), their assets in the United States were frozen, and American citizens were banned from doing business with them. The US Department of Justice calls Vasinsky and Polyanin members of the REvil hacker group, which extorted funds and “received ransoms worth more than $ 200 million.”
