The citizen of the Russian Federation, which U.S. authorities believe an unregistered foreign agent, before the presidential elections in 2016 talked with the assistant of Donald trump. We are talking about Jeffrey Gordon, who for some time was responsible for security at election headquarters policy.
This writes the popular edition of the Washington Post, citing internal sources in the intelligence Committee. According to this information, Maria Butina made acquaintance with Gordon at a ceremony at the residence of the Ambassador of Switzerland to the United States. She has invited him to a public dinner, which was organized by the heir to the Rockefeller, George O’neill, Jr.
Despite the fact that Gordon refused to attend this event, he continued to communicate with Butynol via e-mail. At the same time, judging by the content of the correspondence relationship of the citizen of Russia and an assistant trump went beyond their professional activities. For example, in September 2016 Gordon invited a girl to a concert of the band Styx, which was held in Washington, and next month called Butina on the celebration of his birthday.
A former employee of the election headquarters trump said he didn’t have a romantic relationship with a Russian woman. According to Gordon, he also haven ‘t discussed with the girl the electoral campaign of the current President of the United States.
«It seems that the story of Mary Butinai — this sensation is designed to slander the Republicans and members of the National rifle Association, with whom she was seen for several years,» said Jeffrey Gordon.
In this situation, was involved another person involved in Butinai. The WP reporters claim that a member of the Republican party Paul Erickson helped her to establish contact with the then assistant to trump.
We will remind, earlier it became known that the organization «Right to arms«, which was founded by Maria Butina, financed by Russian billionaire Konstantin Nikolaev. This information was confirmed by official representatives of the businessman.
