Erik Prince Set Up Meeting In Seychelles For Trump-Putin Backchannel, Report Says

Erik Prince Set Up Meeting In Seychelles For Trump-Putin Backchannel, Report Says:

"Just about a year ago, news broke that Erik Prince had gone to the Seychelles to broker a secret communications channel for Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin to communicate. At the time of the report, Prince denied it vehemently before admitting that yes, he had a meeting but it was just incidental, nothing to see here. Indeed, it appears there was something to see there. The Washington Post reports that Robert Mueller is gathering evidence that the January, 2017 meeting in question was indeed intended to establish backchannel communications between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin before Trump was sworn into office."
