Akomerezaho nyuma yuko bamwe basetse muri iryo huriro, yongeyeho ko uyu atari umwanzuro usanzwe w’akazi w’amakuru y’ubutasi.
Kuri uyu wa kane, ibiro bya Perezida w’Uburusiya - Kremlin - byahakanye ibihuha byuko Putin arwaye.
Dmitry Peskov, umuvugizi wa Putin, yabwiye abanyamakuru ati: "Mu mezi ya vuba aha ashize, abiyita ’impuguke’ mu makuru b’Abanya-Ukraine, Abanyamerika n’Abongereza bakwirakwije amakuru y’ibinyoma atandukanye ku buzima bwa perezida. Ariko nta kindi kitari ibinyoma".
