Трамп Джуниор врал Конгрессу
На днях в "Erik Prince и другие" я цитировал подробную статью в NYT, "Trump Jr. and Other Aides Met With Gulf Emissary Offering Help to Win Election".
Теперь уже можно утверждать, что Джуниор врал Конгрессу.
Отсюда:
Is it a big deal? По нынешним временам -- not at all.

Отсюда:
Lying to Congress is a crime even if you are not under oath. Federal law prohibits making false statements to Congress. If false statements were made “knowingly and willfully” about “material facts,” it is punishable by up to five years in prison.Из показаний Джуниора:
Q: You should understand that, although the interview is not under oath, by law you are required to answer questions from Congress truthfully. Do you understand that?Имейте в виду, что факт встречи Джуниора с представителями принцев подтвердил адвокат Джуниора, так что говорить о fake news не представляется возможным.
TRUMP JR: I do.
[...]
Q: We’ve talked a lot about Russia. So I have some broader questions about other foreign governments. Did other foreign governments offer or provide assistance to the Trump campaign?
TRUMP JR: None that I’m aware of.
Q: Did other foreign nationals offer or provide assistance to the Trump Campaign?
TRUMP JR: No.
Is it a big deal? По нынешним временам -- not at all.

WASHINGTON — Three months before the 2016 election, a small group gathered at Trump Tower to meet with Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son. One was an Israeli specialist in social media manipulation. Another was an emissary for two wealthy Arab princes. The third was a Republican donor with a controversial past in the Middle East as a private security contractor.
The meeting was convened primarily to offer help to the Trump team, and it forged relationships between the men and Trump insiders that would develop over the coming months — past the election and well into President Trump’s first year in office, according to several people with knowledge of their encounters.
