Russian hackers admit it: We're interfering with elections in Germany

The hacker, who has identified himself only as Alexander, has told BuzzFeed that Twitter status is “free forward (for mutual benefit)”. But he didn't show what the benefits were, and he didn't admit if someone asked him to support the AfD, broadcast the Express.

“I don't give this information”, he said, in an interview held through Russian social network, the WK.

Likewise, Alexander has not commented whether AfD itself is in contact with him.

Meanwhile, according to the Twitter tracking service established by Laura Rosenberger, director of the Alliance for Security of Democracy in Washington, the Russians are actively promoting the far-right party, AfD, national elections.
