Guccifer 2.0, the hacker who claimed responsibility, only ever raised his head for these leaks and then popped up much later to declare that the file released by the former MI6 agent was nonsense.

Wow, why would Guccifer choose that day to take a break? ;D
Maybe you should spend a bit of time on Google, Cookie. Perhaps Google Jessikka Aro, the Bundestag hacks, and the recent history of Russia's information war with the West and the Baltic states. You could find stuff like this: http://www.politico.eu/article/russian-i...kel-putin/
