Und dann war ja noch die angebliche Entführungsdiskussions-Nummer letzte Woche. [http://edition.cnn.com/2017/03/25/politics/james-woolsey-mike-flynn-cnntv/] Former CIA Director James Woolsey told CNN Friday that former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn met with representatives of the Turkish government in 2016 and discussed potential ways to send a foe of Turkey's president back to face charges in that country. Woolsey claims that those present discussed sending Fethullah Gulen, a Muslim leader who Erdogan has accused of being behind a failed military coup to overthrow him, back to Turkey to face charges -- possibly outside the legal US extradition system. The White House acknowledged earlier this month that Trump's transition team was aware Flynn engaged in work that would likely require him to register his consulting firm as a foreign agent before he was tapped to serve as national security adviser. Flynn Intel Group received $530,000 in payments from a Turkish-owned company based in the Netherlands and earlier this month registered as a foreign agent with the Justice Department, acknowledging that the work may have benefited the Turkish government, according to foreign agent registration paperwork filed with the department. ***Diese Nachricht wurde von membran am 01.04.2017 16:06 bearbeitet.*** |
