WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he does not believe Russia is still targeting the United States, contradicting U.S. intelligence assessments that Moscow was continuing its attempts to meddle in American elections.

Trump on Tuesday tried to walk back comments that he believed Russian President Vladimir Putin over American intelligence chiefs on Russian interference in the 2016 election, saying that he had misspoken a day earlier after a summit meeting with Putin in Helsinki.

Asked by reporters on Wednesday if Russia was still targeting the United States, Trump shook his head and said, No.

U.S. intelligence officials have said Russian election interference efforts are continuing and now target the upcoming congressional elections in November.

Trump has been scrambling to undo the damage from his comments on Monday in which he gave credence to Putins denials over the conclusions of American intelligence services.

Were doing very well, probably as well as anybody has ever done with Russia. And theres been no president ever as tough as I have been on Russia, Trump told reporters before a Cabinet meeting at the White House.

U.S. Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats told a congressional committee in February that he already had seen evidence Russia was targeting U.S. elections in November, when Republican control of the House of Representatives and Senate are at stake, plus a host of positions in state governments.

In rebutting Trumps dismissive comments about U.S. intelligence on Monday, Coats said in a statement, We have been clear in our assessments of Russian meddling in the 2016 election and their ongoing, pervasive efforts to undermine our democracy.

He's a traitor. A fucking traitor.

He's going to definitely be in history classes. Typically the people don't pick a foreign puppet, the puppet gets forced on them.

It's not contradictory to say Russia isn't targetting the US now when the claim is election tampering.

Putin has something on Trump. I have never seen a US President who cowered to a Russian president until the other day.

Keep in mind also at the end of WW2 General George Patton said we defeated the wrong enemy. He felt in hindsight that Russia (former U.S.S.R.) was and would be the bigger enemy going forward. He wanted America to ally National Socialist Germany in order to destroy the U.S.S.R.

Lol I think the people saying he cowered to him didnt actually even watch the full summit and relied on clips posted by huffpost. The only overly polite comment I noticed was about the world cup. It's normal for politicians to be overly respectful when it comes to summits and the like because the whole point of those is diplomacy. If anything they were both overly polite to each other.

And Putin was right... the attitudes that these countries have toward each other is residual cold war attitudes that americans amd russians are hanging on to. Honestly, most of you sound like ancient baby boomers in regards to that but the irony is that most of you probably didnt even live through it.

There are legitimate issues that America and Russia have but the election tampering rhetoric is not one of them. Trump won because people went out and voted for him

Lots of countries have legitimate issues. We have legitimate issues with China as well. That doesn't mean we have to wage war against them

Keeping up cold war sentiments and treating them like a staunch enemy for a couple geopolitical differences is stupid and unproductive. I guess trump should put his foot down like Obama and let a Crimea situation happen all over again. That kind of diplomacy seemed to work really well!

Well, it will be if things get fixed. Otherwise all the textbooks will say stuff like "Trump never has to take a dump" or "his business pajama suits became the biggest fashion trend in history."
