"The real question to be asked is what was the Clinton campaign [doing about Russian interference]? They had more information about this than we did," Sanders said in the interviewwith Vermont Public Radio.
After being contacted by POLITICO about the interview, Sanders issued a lengthy statement calling the Russian involvement a "direct assault on the free democratic systems that stand in contrast to the autocratic, nationalistic kleptocracy of Vladimir Putin and his backers in the Russian oligarchy" which "deserves unconditional condemnation."
"They were supporting my campaign? No. They were attacking Hillary Clinton's campaign and using my supporters against Hillary Clinton," Sanders said in the radio interview.
Asked why Sanders would blame Clinton for not intervening, Weaver said, "Uh, I don't know. They [Clinton's campaign] did have more information."
As for Sanders' claims of having gone to Clinton's campaign about possible Russian meddling, Weaver said Sanders was "speaking broadly."
"What he knows is all from published news reports," Weaver said.
