Wikileaks offered to helpe the Obama administration authenticate the Russian hacking allegations
The Independent reported:
Wikileaks has offered to help US President Barack Obama authenticate spy agencies’ assessment that Russia was behind the leak of hacked Democratic emails during the presidential election…
…Wikileaks published the leaked emails over the summer, the messages having been hacked from the Democratic National Convention and the account of Hillary Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta.
The group tweeted on Friday: “Obama should submit any Putin documents to WikiLeaks to be authenticated to our standards if he wants them to be seen as credible.”
