British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt has said that it is important for Western states to find ways to stop Russia's attempts to interfere in democratic processes.
"We know that states like Russia have got a very active, planned, thought-through strategy to interfere in democratic processes in Western countries and [to sow] dissension and chaos wherever they can. We are getting much better at fending off these attacks when they happen. What we don't do at the moment is deter them from happening in the first place,” Hunt stated, CBC News reports.
He added that foreign ministers at the G7 meeting in France considered the ways aimed “at finding a deterrence strategy that imposed a high price for meddling with democratic processes.”
