Trump said he had nothing to do with the dismissal of US Attorney General Robert Mueller, who was conducting an investigation into alleged collusion with Russia. The head of the White House also confirmed that Manafort did work in his election headquarters, however this period did not last long.

Manafort himself expressed a desire to leave Trump's team, and he did not oppose it.

The leader of the American state is ready to cooperate with the special services, if necessary, but within the limits of the process about the involvement of the Kremlin in the 2016 election campaign, as a result of which it was Trump who became president.

As reported in URA-Inform, recently ex-US President George W. Bush jailed the activities of the White House administration of the incumbent president for his pro-Russian views.
