The legal team representing former national security adviser Michael Flynn has ended an agreement to share information with the White House about the ongoing Russia probe. The New York Times first reported Thursday that the decision might mean that Flynn is cooperating with special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into possible meddling by Russia in the 2016 U.S. presidential election and any potential ties between the Trump campaign and Moscow. In major criminal investigations, defense lawyers routinely share information with each other. But it can become unethical to continue such communication if one of the potential targets is looking to negotiate a deal with prosecutors. A deal with Flynn would give prosecutors insight into how President Donald Trump's team conducted itself during the campaign and the early days of the administration. Flynn resigned from the Trump's administration in February after it was revealed that he misled Vice President Mike Pence about conversations he had with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. 代表前国家安全顾问弗林的律师团终止了与白宫的一项协议，不再与白宫分享有关调查中的俄罗斯涉嫌干预美国选举的信息。 《纽约时报》星期四最先报道了这一消息。这个决定可能意味着弗林正在与特别检察官穆勒的调查合作。调查核心是确定俄罗斯是否干预了2016年的美国大选，以及川普竞选团队是否与莫斯科有任何联系。 |
