Trump blamed the Congress for the deterioration of relations with Russia

President Tramn Thursday accused the Congress in the current «very dangerous» relations with Russia.

«Our relations with Russia are at a record very low threat,» wrote trump on the day after the signing of the law, which is largely approved by Congress that imposes new sanctions on Russia and limiting the powers of the President in their removal.

Our relationship with Russia is at an all-time & very dangerous low. You can thank Congress, the same people that can’t even give us HCare!

«Our relations with Russia are on record and very dangerous minimum. You can thank Congress for it. These are the people who can’t even give us a normal health».

In addition to the introduction of new sanctions against Russia in addition to sanctions against Iran and North Korea, the bill limits the ability of the President to return diplomatic convoys sent by the Obama administration, in response to Russia’s intervention in the elections.

Sanctions are partially connected with the conclusions of the intelligence that Russia interfered in the presidential elections in the United States through a coordinated effort, which included break-ins of political organizations and the publication of «fake news» designed to harm the democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and to undermine faith in democracy in the United States.

Special counsel of the Ministry of justice Robert Mueller is investigating the involvement of Russia to the elections, including its possible connection with the election campaign trump.

Trump and his aides have repeatedly denied the possibility of collusion with Russia.

The Russian government, in turn, also responded to the sanctions by sending out of the country 755 American diplomats.

Recall that the trump last month met with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the summit of the Twenties in Germany. After the meeting, trump tweeted that «it’s time to move forward in a constructive work with Russia.»
