Explanation:

If we read the two sentences, we can observe that the second statement is trying to highlight what the situation seems like. And among the choices available, only 'as if' can be used because it is used to describe how a situation seems to be.

Combing the two sentences the new sentence will be:

Immediately after the summit, Trump did nothing to dispel the suspicions of his Russian connections as if he had been following orders from the Kremlin and this made people wonder about his priorities.

Hence, option B is correct.
