UK PM Andy Burnham says it is ‘clear’ Russia interfered in 2016 Brexit vote
Claim marks the first time a UK prime minister has publicly acknowledged Russia's interference in the vote to leave EU.
What the coverage shows
All five outlets focus on Burnham’s statement that Russia interfered in the 2016 Brexit vote, with BBC News also quoting him on voters not being “sufficiently” informed. The Guardian alone adds that he said he asked the question after entering No 10 but did not say who gave him the “clear answer.” France 24 and South China Morning Post broaden the frame to Burnham warning French and German voters, while Al Jazeera says the remark is the first public acknowledgment by a UK prime minister.
