Russophobia (noun | Rus·so·pho·bia): fear or dislike of Russia or Russian policy
On Thursday, December 29, 2016, President Obama expelled 35 Russian diplomats in retaliation for alleged US election hacking. The New York Times immediately cheered the retaliatory response by the Obama Administration as having “real teeth” while simultaneously acknowledging the actions as creating a problem for President Elect Donald Trump, who has rejected claims of Russia’s interference in the 2016 Presidential Election.
Obama’s recent measures appear to have been based upon a 13-page joint report from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) regarding alleged malicious cyber activity by the Russian civilian and Intelligence Services (RIS) under the code name of GRIZZLY STEPPE.
