Kremlin says allegations Russia is interfering in Turkish election concocted by liars

The Kremlin said on Friday that allegations Russia had interfered in the Turkish presidential election were false and had been concocted by liars.

Kemal Kilicdaroglu, the main election rival of Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan, issued a warning to Russia, accusing it of responsibility for the release of fake material on social media ahead of Sunday's ballot.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the people who had passed on such allegations to Kilicdaroglu were liars and that Russia valued its ties with Turkey enormously.
