Former head of Donald Trump's campaign headquarters, Paul Manafort, on Friday pleaded guilty to two counts and agreed to cooperate with US attorneys investigating Russia's alleged interference in the US 2016 presidential election of the year, prosecutors told the federal court in Washington.
Manafort pleaded guilty to one charge of conspiracy against the United States and obstruction of justice, according to court documents.
Informed sources on Thursday reported that Manafort is close to concluding an agreement with prosecutors, which will allow him to avoid a second criminal trial.
The investigation of the alleged interference of Russia in the presidential election of 2016 of the year and the trump staff’s conspiracy with Moscow is led by US special prosecutor Robert Muller.
The White House said that the Manafort deal with prosecutors was “absolutely in no way connected with the president or his victorious 2016 presidential campaign of the year.”
Manafort is accused of collusion in Washington for money laundering and deception of the USA, as well as the lack of registration as a foreign agent, which he needed when he lobbied in the USA the interests of the pro-Russian party of ex-president of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych, earning tens of millions dollars.
In August, the first lawsuit against Manafort in Virginia was completed. A jury jury found him guilty of eight counts of banking and tax fraud, as well as hiding accounts in foreign banks.
