Responding to myself since I first wanted to note the irony of the submitted article. Now I'll talk about this.
First, the US has many times interferred in Russian elections. I will not mention the interference in those of Russia's neighbours, Russia's allies, or others. So understand me when I find it absolutely impossible to be shocked by the allegations of Russian interference in the US since at least 2016. Brussels is an ally of the US, submitted to the NATO and therefore the US by treaty, and has done similar.
Second, no concrete evidence has been produced that this Russian interference in the US elections went beyond some tens of thousands of dollars of adverts in social media. The fingerprints of Russian troll farms are speculation. To believe some of the commentors here, if someone writes in an online forum that the EU is bad or we need to improve relations with Russia, then it's a Russian troll farm. Well I'm not from a Russian troll farm and I'll say (a) that the economic and political model of the EU has brought suffering and servitude to many of its members and (b) that it is imperative that western countries improve their relations with Russia rather than blindly following the irrational and bellicose positions of the US and NATO.
