Naryshkin slams flimsy accusations regarding attack on Saudi oil facilities

Unfounded allegations about some country being involved in the attack on Saudi Arabia’s oil facilities are inadmissible, Russian Foreign Intelligence Service Director Sergei Naryshkin said.

“We obviously condemn such actions. However, very clear unbiased evidence of guilt is required. Flimsy allegations about some country, movement or any other force being the initiator of those actions are inadmissible," TASS cited him as saying.

The situation around the attack on Saudi Arabia’s oil facilities was discussed at the meeting on Monday, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service chief said. "We discussed our cooperation in reversing the situation in the Middle East as well. Of course, we mentioned the dangerous events connected with attacks on the energy infrastructure of Saudi Arabia," Naryshkin added.
