Kemal Kilicdaroglu, the main opposition candidate in Sunday's elections in Turkey, accused Moscow of interfering in the election campaign. The Turkish politician accused Russia of being responsible for "plots" and spreading a fake video.

"If you want our friendship to continue even after May 15," the day after the election, "take your hands off the Turkish state," he wrote on Twitter in a message written in Turkish and also in Russian. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has denied any Russian interference in Turkey's elections.
