President of the United States Donald Trump during talks in the Oval Office told Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov that he had dismissed the head of the FBI, James Komi, who was investigating Russia's interference in the presidential elections in the United States.

This is reported by The New York Times.

"I just fired the head of the FBI, he's crazy, a real psycho. I was faced with a lot of pressure because of Russia. ", - noted Trump.

At the same time, White House spokesman Sean Spicer said that Trump fired the Komi because of the latter's desire to politicize the investigation into Russia's interference in the US presidential election.

"Komi politicized the investigation and exposed him to the show. He created unnecessary pressure, which prevented us from interacting and negotiating with Russia, "he said..

According to him, Trump has always stated the importance of negotiations with Russia on Ukraine, Syria and the fight against IGIL.

"Komi resignation does not mean termination of investigation. I want to note that the leaks of private and classified negotiations undermine our national security, "Spicer said..

Recall, the American edition of the Washington Post claims that US President Donald Trump provided enough confidential information to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak during a meeting in the White House.

According to other media reports, during the talks at the White House with Lavrov, Trump could touch upon the threat of laptops on board aircraft, or gave the Russian minister secret information about the plans of the terrorist organization "Islamic State".

Also, the media reported that Trump took in the Oval Office of Lavrov at the request of the Kremlin's head Vladimir Putin, for which the very fact of the negotiations was more important than their results.

As reported by the "Observer", a week in the United States has not ceased talking about the possible impeachment of President Donald Trump because of the scandal surrounding the investigation of the ties between Trump's team and Russia.

A new wave of charges was born in an article in The New York Times. It claims that the owner of the White House allegedly asked former FBI director James Komi to stop the investigation against Michael Flynn, a former presidential adviser suspected of having ties to Moscow.
