According to a report by CNN, Russian oligarch and confidant of Vladimir Putin has admitted Russia's interference in the U.S. election. "I will answer you very subtly and carefully, and I apologize if my answer allows for some ambiguity: Gentlemen, we interfered, we are interfering and we will interfere," Yevgeny Prigozhin said in a Q&A session held on the social platform VKontakte, the Russian equivalent of Facebook.
Prigozhin is a financier of an Internet influence agency known as "Putin bots" and founder of the mercenary group Wagner. While he holds no office in Vladimir Putin's government, he is considered a very close confidant of the Russian president. According to CNN, Prigozhin is the first high-ranking protagonist from the Kremlin's entourage to admit the influence of Russian forces on U.S. elections such as the midterms.

How could this be, when Trump has ruled that it is not so, and no Russian influence by his admired best tough guy Putin has ever taken place?
