WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Accusations without proof can further drive a wedge between the United States and Russia and dampen prospects for reestablishing a positive relationship, Kucinich expalined.
"It’s important that those who are attempting to subvert that relationship are challenged and that this investigative process be focused on fact finding which is substantive and not salacious, sensational or otherwise intended to further divide our nations," Kucinich said.
On Wednesday, the US Senate Intelligence Committee held its first hearing on the alleged Russian interference in the 2016 Presidential elections.
Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a direct denial on Thursday of allegations that his country influenced the 2016 US presidential elections.
