TEL AVIV A Russian translator who worked on behalf of the State Department, including during Hillary Clintons tenure as Secretary of State, was reportedly present at the June meeting at Trump Tower with President Trumps son, Donald Trump Jr.
On Friday, the New York Times reported that Rinat Akhmetshin, a U.S. lobbyist and former Soviet military serviceman, was present for the brief meeting with Trump Jr.
Akhmetshin identified an individual named Anatoli Samachornov as being the Russian translator who was present at the meeting at which Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya reportedly argued against the Magnitsky Act, which sanctions Russian officials. The meeting was reportedly presented to Trump Jr. as being about information regarding Hillary Clinton. Veselnitskaya reportedly does not speak English and has given interviews to U.S. news media outlets through translators in recent weeks.
Samachornov would not confirm to the New York Times that he was present at the meeting between Trump Jr. and Veselnitskaya, only admitting that he was working with Veselnitskaya on efforts related to opposing the Magnitsky Act during the time of the meeting at Trump Tower.

Breitbart has a pretty good summation of the events that took place. Very straight forward with no BS.
A link would be great. The story itself has changed several times. No sure who was and wasn’t there. Hoping someone finds the false “spot” and we end this once and for all.
Self preservation is a powerful instinct.
