A Moscow-based think tank controlled by a Russian official appointed by President Vladimir Putin reportedly hatched a plan to increase Donald Trump’s chances to win the presidency. Five officials told Reuters the institute is the Kremlin’s in-house foreign policy think tank. The report said the think tank produced two documents. The think tank said in a statement to The Tass Russian News Agency that the report is incorrect. Putin has denied any interference in the U.S. election, and Trump said the Kremlin’s activities did not play a role in the election outcome.
