Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said Friday that President Trump must confront Russian President Vladimir Putin over election meddling or abandon a planned summit next week following U.S. criminal indictments of a dozen Russian military operatives.

McCain, who is the Senate Armed Services chairman, said the indictments of the Russians by special counsel Robert Mueller are part of a growing body of evidence showing Putin plotted to attack the 2016 presidential election.
