On Wednesday, several well-known Russian government figures derided Flynns resignation as more of the same anti-Russia provocations.
Paranoia and a witch-hunt, Aleksei Pushkov, a prominent Russian senator and television host, wrote on his Twitter account.
Kosachev, the Russian senate committee chairman, said Flynns resignation dampened hopes that Trumps administration would be able to seek warmer relations with Moscow.
"Either Trump has not acquired the sought-for independence, Kosachev wrote. Or Russophobia has already permeated the new administration from top to bottom.
Pushkov, known for his bombastic statements, went further, echoing a state media propaganda line. The expulsion of Flynn was Act 1. The marked man now is Trump himself.
