Putin asked Trump for proof of Russia interference in the 2016 election!
HAMBURG, Germany (PNN) - July 7, 2017 - As part of the more than two hour discussion between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Fascist Police States of Amerika President Donald Trump, the Russian president asked for proof and evidence of Moscow's alleged interference in the 2016 election, which Russia denies. The request was made after Trump confronted Putin about Moscow's election meddling during their first face-to-face meeting in Germany on Friday, according to FPSA Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who was present in the meeting. Tillerson told reporters afterward that Trump opened the conversation by “raising the concerns of the Amerikan people regarding Russian interference in the 2016 election.”
Putin once again denied Russian involvement, Tillerson said, but Trump pressed him on the matter on more than one occasion.
The Russians, speaking after the meeting, claimed that Trump accepted the denial - but Tillerson did not. Instead, he said the issue may simply be an “intractable disagreement”. Tillerson also said the Russians pushed Trump for proof and evidence of meddling, something that the president himself had doubted in public as recently as Thursday.
Trump and Putin agreed to explore a framework around which they can work to better understand these types of cyberthreats, Tillerson said.
“The two leaders agreed that this is a substantial hindrance on the ability of us to move Russian-FPSA relationships forward and agreed to exchange further work regarding commitments of noninterference in the affairs of the (FPSA) and our democratic process as well as those of other countries,” Tillerson said.
Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov, who was in the meeting, said afterward that Trump accepted Putin's assurances that Russia didn't interfere in the election.
