Warmongering US Republican Senator John McCain has claimed that Russia is waging a war against the United States because of the alleged cyber attacks against US political organizations.
“It’s an act of war,” McCain, a staunch opponent of Russia, told reporters on the US Capitol in Washington, DC.
“If you try to destroy the fundamentals of democracy, then you have destroyed a nation,” said McCain, the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
“I’m not saying it’s an atomic attack. I’m just saying that when you attack a nation’s fundamental structure, which they are doing, then it’s an act of war,” he continued.
No solid proof can be provided by McCain that Russia engaged in cuber attacks against the US.
