US comments on Russian polls ‘unacceptable=?UTF-8?B?4oCZ?= – Foreign Ministry

Russian Foreign Ministry said Tuesday comments by senior US officials about Russian parliamentary elections were “unacceptable.”

“Comments by the US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton about the Russian parliamentary elections, as well as those of other representatives of the White House and the US Department of State are unacceptable,” the ministry said in a statement.

“We expect the US side to refrain from unfriendly statements running counter to the general positive vector of our bilateral relations,” the statement reads.

It comes after Clintion – addressing the foreign ministers of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) member countries in Vilnius – said: “Russian voters deserve a full investigation of all credible reports of electoral fraud and manipulation and we hope in particular that the Russian authorities will take action.”
