Russian President Vladimir Putin has suggested the Mueller investigation is politically motivated, calling it part of the United States’ “internal political games” in a 30-minute interview with Fox News anchor Chris Wallace that aired Monday night. “It’s quite clear to me that [the Mueller investigation] is [being] used in the internal political struggle—and it’s nothing to be proud of for American democracy, to use such dirty methods in the political rivalry.” Russian President Putin on the Mueller probe: I'm not interested in this issue a single bit.
