"트럼프, 2월 FBI국장에 러시아 내통 의혹 수사 중단 요청"
The
White House has been hit with yet another bombshell after President
Trump reportedly asked former FBI Director James Comey to end an
investigation into ex-National Security Adviser Michael Flynn's alleged
links to Russia.
The explosive new development comes as the White
House is already trying to weather the storm created by Trump's alleged
disclosure of classified information to Russian officials.
Ro Aram has the details.
The
New York Times first broke the story on Tuesday, citing a memo written
by Comey immediately after a White House meeting in February, which read
that President Trump told him "I hope you can let this go".
The Oval
Office talks came only a day after Michael Flynn resigned as National
Security Adviser for misleading Vice President Mike Pence about his
conversations with Russia's ambassador before Trump took office.
If
confirmed, the memo would provide the strongest evidence so far that
President Trump tried to influence the Justice Department and FBI
investigation into links between his associates and Moscow.
The White
House, however, denied the report in a statement, saying it was not a
truthful or accurate portrayal of the conversation between the president
and the former FBI chief.
Comey was fired by Trump a week ago for
what the White House called his mishandling of the investigation into
Hillary Clinton's emails.
But, critics accused the president of
trying to thwart the investigation into Russia's suspected meddling in
last year's presidential election, which Comey was heading.
In its
report, The New York Times said the memo was shared with FBI officials
and was part of a paper trail Comey created to document what he
perceived as the president’s improper efforts to influence a continuing
investigation.
The latest Russia twist came as both Democrats and
Republicans pressured Trump to explain why he revealed sensitive
intelligence information to Moscow's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
If
what is mentioned on the Comey memo turns out to be true.... then it
will pack the biggest punch so far to the Trump administration.
