Pirateo ruso: la reacción de Obama

With respect to response,


my principle goal leading up to the election
was making sure that the election itself went off without a hitch
that it was not tarnished
and that it did not feed any sense in the public that somehow
tampering had taken place with the actual process of voting.
And we accomplished that.
That does not mean that we are not going to respond,
it is simply meant that we have a set of priorities leading up to the election
that were of the utmost importance.
Our goal continues to be to send a clear message to Russia or others,
not to do this to us because we can do stuff to you.
But, it is also important for us to do that in a thoughtful and methodical way
and some of it we do publicly
and some of it we'll do in a way that they know but not everybody will.
I know that there have been folks out there who suggest somehow
that if we went out there and made big announcements and thumped our chests
about a bunch of stuff that somehow that would potentially spook the Russians,
but keep in mind that we already have
enormous numbers of sanctions against the Russians.
The relationship between us and Russia has deteriorated, sadly
significantly over the last several years.
So how we approach an appropriate response
that increases costs for them for behavior like this in the future
but does not create problems for us
is something that 's worth taking the time to think through and figure out .
That's exactly what we have done.
So at a point in time where we have taken certain actions
that we can divulge publicly, we will do so.
There are times where the message will go will be directly received by the Russians
and not publicized .
I should point out by the way ,
part of why the Russians have been effective on this
is because they don't go around announcing what they are doing.
It is not like Putin's going around the world publicly saying
"look what we did, wasn't that clever".
He denies it.
So, the idea that somehow public shaming is going to be effective,
I think doesn't read
the thought process in Russia very well. December 2016.
