The Russian Embassy in the United States urged not to frighten citizens with the Russian threat

American lawmakers should refrain from emotional assessments of issues that they believe are related to Russia and not frighten US citizens with a Russian threat, diplomats at the Russian Embassy in Washington wrote on June 19 on their Twitter page. We need to maintain a civilized dialogue. Russia does not attack anyone and has no such intentions, the report said. Stop intimidating American and European citizens with horror stories about the Russian threat. Earlier, we recall, Democrat Robert Menendez and in the House of Representatives of the US Congress, his party member Eliot Engel introduced a bill banning the withdrawal of American troops from Europe. Commenting on their initiative, they said that the presence of American troops would provide protection against threats that allegedly originate from Russia.
