Cheney: Russia's Interference in U.S. Presidential Election Possibly 'Considered an Act of War'

Monday at The Economic Times’ Global Business Summit in New Delhi, India former Vice President Dick Cheney told an audience that allegations of Russian interference in last year’s presidential election could be “considered” an act of war.

“There was a very serious effort made by Mr. Putin and his government, his organization, to interfere in major ways with our basic, fundamental democratic processes,” he said. “In some quarters, that would be considered an act of war.”
