FILE - In this Nov. 11, 2017, file photo President Donald Trump, right, and Russia's President Vladimir Putin talk during the family photo session at the APEC Summit in Danang, Vietnam. A sweeping new report by congressional Democrats warns of deepening Russian interference throughout Europe and concludes that even as some Western democracies have responded with aggressive counter-measures, Trump has offered no strategic plan to bolster their efforts or safeguard the U.S. from again falling victim to the Kremlin’s systematic meddling. The 200-plus page report released by Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., the ranking Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, comes without sign-off from Republicans on the panel.
