This morning, President Donald trump said that during a conversation with the leader of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, held on the way to the capital of Vietnam Hanoi, recently denied his involvement in the intervention in the US presidential elections in 2016. Trump said that the allegations «very insulting» to the Russian President.
«I just asked him again,» explained trump. «He said he absolutely did not interfere in our choices, he did what he is accused».
«Every time he sees me, he says: «I didn’t do it», — the President added. «And I believe, I do believe that when he tells me about it, he meant it.»
Trump said he is not going to «argue» with Putin on this issue, for it is much more important that Russia withdraw its troops from Syria.
A little later, in an interview with CNN, the press Secretary of the Kremlin Dmitry Peskov denied the statement of the American leader that in conversation with Putin discussed the issue of intervention in the US presidential election.
However, the Russian news Agency RIA Peskov said other information: contacts between the presidents was «multiple» and talk about the investigation, the United States still held. «Putin told Trump that these accusations are not baseless and categorically rejected even the hypothetical possibility that Russia could somehow interfere in the electoral process,» said the spokesman.
Putin himself called trump «well-mannered and comfortable» to communicate with man. He also said that he considered it necessary to hold a full meeting with the American leader.
