U.S. President-elect Donald Trump now says he believes Russiawas involved in cyberattacks during the presidential election.It was the first time Trump has admitted Russian involvementin hacking computers of the Democratic National Committee.In the past, he refused to publicly accept U.S. intelligence community findingsthat Russia was involved in election hacking.Trump's comments came Wednesdayduring his first press conference since the election."As far as hacking, I think it was Russia," Trump said.Top U.S. intelligence officials have said they believe Russian PresidentVladimir Putin knew about and approved the cyberattacks.Trump was asked in the press conference if he had any messagefor the Russian leader in response to the hacking."He shouldn't be doing it. He won't be doing it.Russia will have much greater respect for our countrywhen I'm leading it, than when other people have led it. You will see that."U.S. intelligence agencies have suggested that Putinmight have engaged in hacking as a way to help Trump win the election.Much of the information released by the hacksturned out to be embarrassing to the Democratic Party and Hillary Clinton.But Trump said the Republican National Committeealso became aware of attempts to hack into its organization.He said possible attacks were stopped by putting security measures in place.Speaking about future relations with Russia,Trump told reporters he does not think it is a bad thing if Putin actually likes him."If Putin likes Donald Trump, guess what folks,that's called an asset, not a liability."Trump added that cyberattacks from outside the United Stateswere not only coming from Russia.He said China is also involved, along with other nations.Trump said he has asked his top national security officials to completewithin 90 days a major report on ways the government can prevent hacking.Trump denounced news reports that Russia is holding ontosecret personal and financial information that could embarrass him.The reports also alleged that his campaignhad made contact with Russian intelligence officials."I think it's a disgrace," Trump said. "It's all fake news."The unproven information in the news reports was reportedly includedin a secret U.S. intelligence report on Russian influence in the election.Copies of that report were given last week to Trump,President Barack Obama and leaders of Congress.During the press conference, Trump also announced how he plannedto deal with his business interests during his presidency.The president-elect has promised that his business activitieswould not pose a conflict of interest while he serves as president.One of his lawyers explained that Trump had decided to give upcontrol of his company to his two sons and another executive.His business assets will be put into a trust and Trumpwill take other steps to keep separate from his businesses, the lawyer said.Trump was asked whether he is backing away from his pledgeto have Mexico pay for a wall along the southern U.S. border.He said, "Mexico will pay for the wall" by reimbursing the United States.On his pledge to get rid of the Affordable Care Act signed into law by President Obama,Trump promised to quickly replace it.He said his goal was to have a new, better health care law in placewhen the current law, often called "Obamacare," is ended.When asked about the Supreme Court,Trump said he will likely name his choiceto replace Justice Antonin Scalia within two weeks of the inauguration.
