Rex Tillerson promised that U.S.
sanctions on Russia would not be lifted and told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that the Trump administration would continue to talk with Russia about their hacking of elections.
Stephanopoulos asked Tillerson what
the consequences for Russia would be if they attempted to influence another election through hacking.
“
We will continue to talk with them about how this undermines any hope of improving relations not just with the United States,” Tillerson told Stephanopoulos.
Tillerson explained that Russia’s use of similar tactics to get involved in elections throughout Europe was evient, and that if this practice continues, it will be very damaging to Russia’s relationship with many European countries.
“
There is no reason to be lifting sanctions, George,” Tillerson said.
