Manafort Owed Russian Oligarch $10 Million

June 27, 2018 · 4:54 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“A search warrant application unsealed on Wednesday revealed closer links than previously known between President Trump’s former campaign manager Paul Manafort and a Russian oligarch with close ties to the Kremlin,” Reuters reports.

“In an affidavit attached to the July 2017 application, an FBI agent said he had reviewed tax returns for a company controlled by Manafort and his wife that showed a $10 million loan from a Russian lender identified as Oleg Deripaska.”
