Speaking separately, also in early August 2016, a Kremlin official involved in US relations commented on aspects of the Russian operation to date, Its goals had been threefold - asking sympathetic US actors how Moscow could help them: gathering relevant intelligence; and creating and disseminating compromising information...

This had involved the Kremlin supporting various US political figures, including funding indirectly their recent visits to Moscow. S/he names a delegation from Lyndon Larouche, presidential candidate Jill Stein of the Green Party, trump foreign policy adviser Carter Page, and former DIA director Michael Flynn, in this regard and as successful in terms of perceived outcomes.
