US President Donald Trump claimed relations with Russia had hit an all-time and very dangerous low yesterday, putting the blame on Congress after he reluctantly approved sanctions against Moscow.
Trump’s outburst came a day after he grudgingly signed off on the sanctions, calling the legislation significantly flawed and adding that some of its provisions were unconstitutional.
After it, Moscow called the sanctions a declaration of economic war that had exposed the US President’s weakness as Trump lashed out at his own lawmakers who had overwhelmingly approved the measures.
Trump’s Presidency has been overshadowed by allegations that his team colluded with Moscow during last year’s US Presidential campaign in which he defeated Hillary Clinton.
Meanwhile, Yesterday reports emerged that special investigator Robert Mueller had impaneled a grand jury to investigate the issue, a step toward possible criminal indictments.
