The White House said that President Trump asked National-Security Adviser John Bolton to invite Russian President Vladimir Putin to Washington this fall.
When asked by a reporter on Wednesday whether Russia was still targeting the U.S., President Trump answered, “no.” The White House said he was talking about something else.
During a joint press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin, President Trump rejected the consensus among the U.S. intelligence community that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election.
