[h=2]'I believe him': Trump says Putin has again denied meddling in the 2016 US elections and that the Russian leader feels 'very insulted' by the accusations - 'which is not a good thing for America'[/h]
Donald Trump said Saturday that during a brief conversation with Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of an economic summit, the Russian president flatly denied meddling in the 2016 election that brought Trump to the White House. The presidents had 'two or three very short conversations' during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Da Nang, Vietnam, he told reporters aboard Air Force One en route to Hanoi. 'He said he didn't meddle. He said he didn't meddle. I asked him again. You can only ask so many times,' Trump said. 'I just asked him again.'
