President of the United States Donald Trump at the meeting in the framework of the G20 summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin did not accept the latter's assurance of Russia's non-interference in the US presidential election in 2016.
This was broadcast on the air of one of the American channels, said the head of the White House, Rains Pribus, RFE / RL reported..
"No that's not true. The president absolutely did not believe in the denial of President Putin, "said Pribus.
"He said that they probably interfered in the elections," added Pribus, commenting on Lavrov's statement that "Trump heard and accepted Putin's refutation".
Recall earlier in the US State Department said that Russia distorts information about private diplomatic talks between the heads of foreign affairs departments of Washington and Moscow.
