The White House on Wednesday pushed to next year President Trumps planned meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, a move that comes amid intensifying criticism of Trumps conflicting statements on Russian interference in U.S. elections.
The President believes that the next bilateral meeting with President Putin should take place after the Russia witch hunt is over, so weve agreed that it will be after the first of the year, national security adviser John Bolton said in a statement, referring to special counsel Robert S. Mueller IIIs probe into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign.
Trump has sharply criticized the investigation.
Last week, the White House announced that Trump had asked Bolton to invite Putin to Washington in the fall for a follow-up meeting to their summit in Helsinki this month.
