John Cornyn Questions Top Trump Administration Intel Officials About Russia's Sabotage In Europe

Published | Video Starts at 01:16

This AP map shows it. Mr. Chairman, I'd like to ask unanimous consent. That's being made part of the record. Without objection. The document that AP compiled, and I presume this is through open sources, documented 59 incidents, including cyber attacks, spreading propaganda, plotting killings or committing acts of vandalism, arson, sabotage or espionage. Is that consistent with your understanding and impression of what Russia's currently engaged in in Europe? Senator, I haven't seen that specific article, but I can confirm that we assess Russia's attempts to conduct such sabotage activities in Europe. (01:16–01:37)
