Le piratage informatique russe aurait tenté d'aider Trump selon la C.I.A.

Bien au-delà de l campagne américaine, il y a quelque chose d'inquiétant dans ces révélations. Si on se limite aux informations présentées dans des documents secret de l'agence de renseignement, les pirates ne se limitaient pas à tenter de miner la crédibilité du système américain, ils favorisaient directement Donald Trump. La C.I.A. a présenté ses découvertes à des Sénateurs cette semaine.

 "The CIA shared its latest assessment with key senators in a closed-door briefing on Capitol Hill last week, in which agency officials cited a growing body of intelligence from multiple sources. Agency briefers told the senators it was now “quite clear” that electing Trump was Russia’s goal, according to the officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence matters.

 The CIA presentation to senators about Russia’s intentions fell short of a formal U.S. assessment produced by all 17 intelligence agencies. A senior U.S. official said there were minor disagreements among intelligence officials about the agency’s assessment, in part because some questions remain unanswered.

For example, intelligence agencies do not have specific intelligence showing officials in the Kremlin “directing” the identified individuals to pass the Democratic emails to WikiLeaks, a second senior U.S. official said. Those actors, according to the official, were “one step” removed from the Russian government, rather than government employees. Moscow has in the past used middlemen to participate in sensitive intelligence operations so it has plausible deniability."
