Senior State Department official told Newsweek it's 'more important than ever' that countries 'deny the Russian government the ability to achieve its agenda through multilateral diplomacy.'

The senior Russian diplomat, who also serves as director of the Russian Foreign Ministry's Department of International Information Security, warned that"a cyberattack, be it accidental or intended, including [one] perpetrated under false flag, can easily trigger escalation between states, leading to a full-scale confrontation."
But the senior State Department official dismissed the effort, pointing to Russia's war launched nearly a month ago in neighboring Ukraine, a conflict in which Moscow has been accused of conducting cyberattacks in addition to its land, air and sea hostilities. But as relations between the U.S. and Russia frayed throughout the 21st century, the entire length of Russian President's rule, four successive administrations have grappled with a Kremlin that sought to reassert itself on the world stage. And now more than ever, with relations at an all-time low, Washington has expressed skepticism toward Moscow's endeavors.
"UN member states have worked for more than two decades on conflict prevention in cyberspace," the senior State Department official said."In the last decade, we achieved hard-won consensus affirmation of the applicability of international law, including the UN Charter, to state behavior in cyberspace."
"With its further invasion of Ukraine, the Russian government is violating the UN Charter," the official said."We can only imagine how trivially Russia treats the framework of responsible state behavior in cyberspace."
