US President Donald Trump, at odds with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, said on Twitter on Saturday that China could be behind hacker attacks on US government offices and other major facilities. The president also said that he thought these attacks were not as severe as many describe them.

A few hours ago, Chancellor Mike Pompeo, speaking as the first member of the government, said in an interview:

According to the news agency, it is not possible to know if Mike Pompeo was instructed to do so before speaking, and yet he spoke about the possible involvement of the Russians, or not.
