Michael Reynolds / Zumapress / Globallookpress.com

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Tuesday that President Donald Trump asked him to rebuild the US relationship with Russia and not allow the political turmoil over possible Russian ties to the Trump campaign to impede him, Time reports.

According to him relations with Russia are at a low point and deteriorating, and Trump asked him to try to stabilize the relationship and rebuild trust.

Referring to Russian ties to the Trump campaign, Tillerson said he couldn't comment on the details of the Russia investigations or whether they could bring down the administration because "I have no direct knowledge."

"He's been quite clear with me to proceed at whatever pace and in the areas I think we might make progress. I really am not involved in any of these other issues," he noted.
