Details: Miller said the US condemns "the malicious cyber activity carried out by Russia's military intelligence service targeting Germany, Czechia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, and Sweden".
"We join NATO and the EU in efforts to counter such activities and hold perpetrators accountable," Miller added.
Background: Earlier on Friday, the EU condemned Russia's malicious cyber campaign against Germany and Czechia.
NATO also expressed solidarity with Germany and Czechia in connection with the cyberattacks carried out by a Russian hacker group and is ready to consider a coordinated response to the threat.
