Sessions: 'I will recuse myself' from investigations when appropriate

Attorney General Jeff Sessions indicated Thursday that he would recuse himself from any investigation into Russia's ties to President Trump when "appropriate."

When asked by NBC News outside his home about the matter, Sessions said he never talked about campaign matters with the Russians.

"I have not met with any Russians at any time to discuss any political campaign. And those remarks are unbelievable to me and are false," he said.

But Sessions opened the door to recusing himself from any Russia-related investigations.

"I've said that whenever it's appropriate, I will recuse myself, there's no doubt about that," he said.
