President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser Michael Flynn has become a major lead for the U.S. investigation into alleged collusion between the Trump campaign team and Russia.
Flynn was dismissed from Trump's administration in record time earlier this year after misleading the vice president about his contact with the Russian Embassy—and he pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about the issue Friday.
Flynn's meetings with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak was one of a series of events that called into question his positions on Russia—his decision to attend broadcaster RT’s anniversary dinner in 2015, where he was pictured sitting next to Putin, also caused controversy.
Since Flynn's plea deal Friday, the photo has resurfaced, with a Russian attendee at the event saying it signifies nohing untoward. The view from Moscow is that the seating arrangement at the state outlet’s party was coincidence.
Flynn was paid $45,000 to make a speech at the dinner. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/russians-paid-mike-flynn-45k-moscow-speech-documents-show-n734506
