Putin’s spokesman’s comments came in response to a new investigation launched by the House Judiciary Committee this week. The inquiry aims to determine whether Trump obstructed justice, conspired with Russia and abused his power. The committee has subpoened numerous close associates, including family members, of the president for documents relating to the investigation. In total, 81 people or places have received document requests, including Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr.
