Jared Kushner & Paul Manafort Sought for Questioning over Russia But Will It Be Behind Closed Doors?

President Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner has agreed to testify to the U.S. Senate committee investigating ties between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 election. He may also face questioning over a December meeting with the head of a U.S.-sanctioned Russian state development bank known as VEB. President Obama imposed the sanctions in 2014 over Russia's military actions in Ukraine. The bank disclosed the meeting on Monday and said Kushner was acting as "the head of Kushner Companies." This information contradicts the statements of White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer, who said on Monday that Kushner was acting as a Trump adviser during the meeting, not as a private developer. The revelations came on the same day Kushner agreed to testify to the Senate committee.
