US President Donald Trump has defended his decision to fire the FBI Director amid James Comey’s efforts to investigate Russia’s alleged interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
Trump made the comments during a meeting with former US secretary of state and national security advisor Henry Kissinger at the white House. The Senate Democrats have renewed calls for a special investigation into whether Russia interfered in the presidential election. They say the need for a probe is now more urgent after the abrupt firing of the FBI Director. Meanwhile, people on Wednesday gathered outside the White House to protest Trump’s move. Democrats accuse the US president of trying to slow down the investigation into his alleged links to Moscow.
