The members of US Congress from Democrats have called for creating an independent commission that will investigate the attempts of the Russian president in intervening in 2016 US presidential elections, such as was created for the investigation of September 11, 2011 terrorist attacks, reports Reuters.

The bill proposed by Democrats envisages the independent commission to conduct interrogation of witnesses and search document, which would help to study the interference of Moscow or any other party in the elections. Members of Congress will not be a part of the committee.
