An upcoming Swiss-hosted summit on Ukraine will aim to create a pathway for Russian officials to take part in future talks, it is reported.
More on the story we brought you yesterday on a Microsoft report that alleged Russia was targeting this summer's Paris Olympics with a disinformation campaign. Colonel Simon Diggins, former British defence attache in Kabul, told Sky News that Russian disinformation is 'only going to get worse'. He said Russia's motivation in attacking France 'appears to be sour grapes'. 'Russia obviously is not allowed to appear at the Olympics as Russia.
'They also ran disinformation campaigns and tried to disrupt and divide the Olympics as well.'But Mr Diggins believes that this isn't the only reason why Russia is targeting the Olympics.He said: 'The bigger picture is Russia's very, very irritated with France because France has been saying very clearly that they're comfortable with Ukrainians using their missiles for attacks into Russia.
