What does " walked back his comments" mean?
Context>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
“They say it’s Russia. I have President Putin. He just said it’s not Russia,” Trump told reporters during the press conference with Putin. “I will say this: I don’t see any reason why it would be…. I have great confidence in my intelligence people, but I will tell you that President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today."
This immediately provoked a backlash from Democrats and a number of Republican lawmakers, as well as commentators.
Trump’s comments were slammed as “disgraceful” by Republican Senator John McCain, and publicly questioned by House Speaker Paul Ryan.
However, the president walked back his comments made in Helsinki, stating on Tuesday that he did have confidence in U.S. intelligence agencies.
“I have full faith and support for America's great intelligence agencies. Always have," ABC Newsreported Trump saying.
