WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — US Congressman Adam Schiff, a ranking member of the House Select Committee on Intelligence, said he would fight the new administration of President-elect Donald Trump if it chooses an unsuitable approach to Russia.
"On Russia policy, if they [the Trump administration] are moving in the direction that I think is inaccessible…we are going to fight them on it," Schiff stated on Thursday at the Defense One Conference in Washington, DC.
Republican candidate Donald Trump, who won the November 8 presidential election, has said on multiple occasions that he would look to improve relations with the Russian government.
