Former President Barack Obama authorized the planting of cyber weapons in
Russian infrastructure in the final weeks of his presidency in response to
Moscow’s interference in the 2016 presidential election, The Washington
Post reported Friday.
The project, not completed before the end of Obama’s term, reportedly left
the weapons in President Trump’s control after he took office.
The Post described the project as “the digital equivalent of bombs that
could be detonated if the United States found itself in an escalating
exchange with Moscow.”
The report said the CIA sent Obama and three other top aides a top-secret
message in early August detailing Russian President Vladimir Putin’s
campaign to help Trump defeat Democrat Hillary Clinton and generally disrupt
the U.S. election.
The intel came shortly after the release of hacked Democratic National
Committee emails that caused embarrassment for Clinton.
The Obama administration reportedly considered a number of responses to
Putin, including cyberattacks on Russian infrastructure, releasing
embarrassing intel about him and crippling sanctions.
Obama settled on a modest sanctions package that was unveiled in December,
along with the planting of the cyber weapons, the Post said. |
