The Kremlin received an email from lawyer Donald Trump Michael Cohen, who he sent when he served as executive vice president of the Trump Organization, said Russian Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov.

“It really happened, this appeal said that a certain Russian company, together with certain individuals, is pursuing the goal of creating such a skyscraper [Trump Tower] in the Moscow City, but things are not going well for them and they are asking for help with some either with a recommendation or with promotion,” quoted Air force Peskov's words.

However, he noted, the presidential administration did not respond to this letter. “We do not respond to such business topics, this is not our job, we left this unanswered,” the Kremlin representative explained.

According to Peskov, the presidential administration receives thousands of complaints from both Russians and foreigners, but the staff only respond to letters related to the activities of the head of state. Questions related to the judicial system, law enforcement agencies, innovative projects and businesses are left unanswered in the Kremlin.

As Peskov emphasized, although the letter was addressed to him personally, he “either unfortunately or fortunately” never met Cohen.

According to Peskov, they did not report the letter to Cohen to President Vladimir Putin. There were no repeated appeals from a lawyer to the Kremlin.

The fact that Cohen sent a letter to the Kremlin, it became known 28 August. This was reported by the Associated Press agency, which turned out to be Cohen’s statement to the Senate Intelligence Committee, which is investigating Russia's alleged interference in the US election and possible connections of the Trump team with Moscow.

As follows from the statement, Cohen decided to send the letter to Peskov after a conversation with Felix Sater, an American businessman with Russian roots who claimed to have good connections in Russia. He, according to Cohen, suggested that the implementation of the project to build a Trump Tower in Moscow may “require approval from the Russian government.”

According to Cohen, he received no response to his letter, and he had no other contacts with Russian government officials in the future.

According to the statement, the project was discussed in the fall of 2015, but at the beginning of 2016, Cohen realized that it was not feasible.

The Washington Post was the first to write about the negotiations regarding the deal with Trump Tower. The newspaper's interlocutors claimed that the project was not implemented because land for it was not found and the necessary permits were not obtained.

The New York Times later reported that in one of the emails sent to Cohen, Sater boasted that the deal could help Trump get elected president. “Our boy can become president of the United States, and we can make it happen,” the newspaper quoted Sater’s letter as saying.

Recall 9 July it became known that in the summer of 2016, the son and son of Donald Trump, as well as the then head of his campaign headquarters met with a Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya.

According to Trump Jr., the meeting was organized by his friends; the lawyer initially promised to provide compromising on Clintonbut focused the conversation on Magnitsky’s list and the adoption program of Russian children by Americans.

Later it became known that the meeting was organized by music publisher Rob Goldstone at the request of Russian singer Emin Agalarov.

July 11 Donald Trump Jr made public the correspondence concerning this meeting. From the published correspondence it follows that Rob Goldstone told Trump Jr. about the presence of compromising documents about the connection of Hillary Clinton with Russia, and the meeting with Veselnitskaya concerned these particular data.
