WASHINGTON – A day after prosecutors involved him in a monastic conspiracy To escape the laws of the election campaign, President Donald Trump sued Saturday by claiming that the investigation on Russia had given no result.
"AFTER TWO YEARS AND MILLION PAGES OF DOCUMENTS (and a cost of more than $ 30,000,000), NO COLLUSION!" Trump tweeted Saturday.
He did not specify.
The President filed a complaint a day after federal prosecutors recommending Trump's former Trump attorney Michael Cohen for Trump in a ploy to pay makeshift money .
Prosecutors said the president – identified in court documents as "Individual-1" – ordered Cohen to pay the women's allowances to allow them to remain silent just before the election. .
Undeclared Payments Prosecutors have declared their concealment a violation of campaign finance laws,
Cohen , who pleaded guilty to making false statements in Congress, also told prosecutors the contacts of the Trump campaign with Russi. a, who sought to influence the election by electronic email of eminent democrats by email.
By November 2015, prosecutors had stated that Cohen was in contact with an unidentified Russian national who claimed to be a "trusted person" in the Russian government.
The person offered to the Trump campaign "a political synergy", says the document, and "repeatedly proposed" a meeting between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, although such a meeting was not an opportunity. never took place.
Special advocate Robert Mueller, a frequent target of Trump, investigates the interference of Russia and seeks to find out if the Trump campaign has had any involvement. He is also looking into whether Trump has tried to prevent the investigation.
Trump, who has always denied any hindrance to collusion and impedance, described Mueller's investigation as a "witch hunt" of a political nature.
Prosecutors also filed new documents in the case of Paul Manafort's case, claiming that he had lied about the Trump campaign and Russia as part of a plea bargaining agreement with Mueller's office.
Trump and his allies said the Manafort filing did not involve the president.
As for Cohen, the assistants described the former president's attorney as a liar who would say no matter what to get a lighter sentence. "Mr. Cohen has repeatedly lied and, as the prosecution has pointed out, Mr. Cohen is not a hero," said the White House spokeswoman , Sarah Sanders.
After the news broadcast on Friday, Trump himself sent a somewhat cryptic tweet: "Totally free the president, thank you!"
Bravado or not, legal analysts said Trump could look into major legal issues, particularly with respect to Cohen's statements.
"The real news right now is not about Cohen's sentence," said Neal Katyal, former acting Solicitor General of the United States. "It appears from the conclusion of federal prosecutors that Donald J. Trump has committed a serious crime."
