CNN: US goal is to make sure countries know RT is working with intelligence agencies

The purpose of the US statement is to ensure that countries are aware of RT's work with intelligence agencies.

CNN reports on this.

“The purpose of the US statement and private conversations with allied diplomats is to ensure that countries are aware that RT and Russian intelligence services are working together to disrupt and damage democratic processes, and to make RT’s work around the world much more difficult,” the TV channel reported, citing a source in the US presidential administration.

Earlier, Special Envoy and Coordinator of the Center for Global Engagement at the US State Department James Rubin said that RT is one of the reasons why the world does not support Ukraine so much.
