(CNN) Russia has filed a complaint with the United Nations over comments by a top UN official condemning Donald Trump and right-wing European politicians, two diplomats knowledgeable about the matter told CNN. "A major party candidate for the presidency of the United States is being protected by the Kremlin. Hope Hicks, Trump's campaign spokeswoman, told CNN the campaign was not aware of Zeid's remarks or Russia's protest. "But I am not working for the United States. I am working for the Russian Federation, so why should I complain when somebody is trying to interfere with the US presidential campaign?"
