Just a day after Russia was hit with sanctions for a cyberattack during the U.S. presidential elections, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev tweeted "RIP" to the outgoing Obama administration.

 


Politico notes
Medvedev was once considered pro-West. His Twitter blast came after the U.S. announced it would sanction Russia and expel 35 of its intelligence operatives over election campaign hacks allegedly backed by the Kremlin.

Russia has vowed to retaliate for the sanctions.
