Secretary of State Mike Pompeo insists that President Trump “made clear” his concerns regarding Russian interference in U.S. elections during a White House meeting with Moscow’s top diplomat
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Wednesday insisted that President Donald Trump “made clear” his concerns regarding Russian interference in U.S. elections during a White House meeting with Moscow’s top diplomat.
“We haven't even discussed elections,” Lavrov said, later appearing to indicate that he had raised with the president remarks Pompeo made to him earlier in the day about election interference. “And there was no mistake that President Trump made clear in the meeting that he had with Foreign Minister Lavrov and the rest of the Russian team that was there, that President Trump personally in America finds their meddling in our elections unacceptable, in the very same way that I had said it earlier to Foreign Minister Lavrov,” Pompeo added.
