US Attorney General Jeff Sessions has recused himself from any federal investigation of alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 Presidential election. In a statement, America's top Prosecutor said he has decided to recuse from any existing or future investigations of any matters related to the campaigns for President of the United States. <br/><br/>He said he did not lie when he testified at a January confirmation hearing that he had no communications with the Russians. Sessions said, he never had any intention to mislead anyone and that his answers were honest and correct as he understood the question at that time.<br/><br/>US intelligence agencies concluded last year that Russia hacked and leaked Democratic emails during the election campaign as part of an effort to tilt the vote in Trump's favor. The Kremlin has denied the allegations.
