US President Donald Trump said he accepted the conclusion of the US intelligence agency that Russia interfered in the 2016 elections, despite refusing to do so one day ago. He said that he unintentionally said what he meant on Monday, saying that he had no reason not to interfere in Russia. He made his initial comments after meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, sparking a series of criticisms. Even some of Trump's allies urged him to clarify his position.
