Trump pledges to work with Russia

US President Donald Trump, vowed, to "move forward in working constructively with Russia," including forming a cybersecurity coalition between the two countries.

Russian President Vladimir Putin, had recently denied any interference in the 2016 U.S. election.

John Brennan, former CIA director under Obama, who ran the agency's response to Russia's election interference, chastised Trump for doubting the conclusions of the intelligence community.

Trump signaled on Sunday, that he was turning the page on U.S.-Russia relations, to "move forward in working constructively" and boasting about an "impenetrable Cyber Security unit" he and Putin discussed forming, "so that election hacking, & many other negative things, will be guarded."

Former defense of secretary Ashton B. Carter, who served under Obama at the time of Russia's interference in the election, said, working with Putin to fight cyberattacks "is like the guy who robbed your house proposing a working group on burglary."
