TPM - "Conway Claims Nothing Came Of Stalled Trump Tower Project In Moscow"
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/kellyanne-conway-nothing-came-of-stalled-trump-tower-moscow-projectBy ESME CRIBB Published AUGUST 29, 2017 6:55 PM
Senior White House adviser Kellyanne Conway on Tuesday claimed that “nothing came” of efforts by Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s longtime personal attorney and friend, on a deal to construct a Trump-branded tower in Moscow.
“Nothing came of it. There is no Trump Tower in Moscow, no visit was made,” Conway said on Fox News.
The Washington Post reported on Monday that Cohen tried to contact Russian President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman in January 2016 for help with the project. Cohen blamed Felix Sater, his friend and a longtime Trump associate, for pushing him to reach out.
In a 2015 email exchange, according to the New York Times, Sater bragged about his connections to Putin and predicted that the Russian leader would help Trump win the election.
