Rob Goldstone
Rob Goldstone, a former journalist turned publicist, has been identified as the man who set up the meeting between Donald Trump Jr. and a Russian source with insights on Hillary Clinton.
In a new chapter of the Trump/Russia controversies, Rob –a Briton, allegedly asked the son of the now US president, to meet with Natalia Veselnitskaya in June 2016. The Russian lawyer allegedly promised damaging material about Hillary Clinton during last year’s presidential campaign.
A special prosecutor is investigating whether members of the Trump campaign colluded with Russian interference into the 2016 presidential election.
Though the Trump side has accepted meeting with Veselnitskaya, they say she never produced information negative to Clinton.
Goldstone has also accepted his part into the new piece of the puzzle, as the man who arranged the meeting. Reports say he told Trump Jr. that the meeting was part of a Russian government attempt to boost his father’s presidential campaign.
Adding more fuel, Rob posted a photograph to Instagram in which he wore a T-shirt with a large “RUSSIA” logo –just hours after Trump’s victory in the 2016 election.
