2:55 p.m.: Sessions denies meetings with Russians and accusations that he lied under oath

Sessions came out swinging, denying that he ever met with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, D.C. — an alleged meeting Senators had been briefed on last week.

„I did not have any private meetings, nor do I recall any conversations with any Russian officials at the Mayflower Hotel,“ Sessions said.
