Manafort is charged with a conspiracy against the United States

The large jury of the jury presented the Politicsologist Paul Manafort, the former chief of the campaign headquarters Donald Trump, the accusations of 12 episodes, including a conspiracy against the United States. It is reported by Reuters.

In addition, Manafort has one episode of money laundering, one - work as a foreign agent without the laid registration and two - permits, including one - in connection with the work of an unregistered foreign agent. Finally, seven episodes of banking and financial reporting violations were charged with a political region.

The same accusations were brought by the Manafort partner - Rick Gates.

In particular, it is argued that Manafort and Gates received tens of millions of dollars from parties and politicians of Ukraine and from 2006 at least last year laundered this money in American and foreign structures to hide their origin, and thus their connections with Kiev.

On the morning of Monday, local time (after lunch in Moscow), Manafort, accompanied by a lawyer, appeared on the agenda in the FBI department in Washington.

Gates is also called to the special service.

Later, both delivered a federal court in force in the district to choose a preventive measure. On the proceedings, both Manafort and Gates said that they were not plead guilty. Both were sent under house arrest.

The day before it was reported that the FBI is studying the money transfers of offshore firms related to Manafort. At the same time, it remained unknown whether any accusations were brought to the political technologist.

The fact that the large jury of the jury approved the accusations in the case of Russian intervention in last year's presidential elections in the United States prepared by special prosecutor Robert Muller, the media transferred on Friday . The names of the accused were not revealed then. At the same time, it was reported that the defendants could be detained on Monday.

Manafort left the post of chief of staff of Trump in August 2016, after it turned out that he was one of the key advisers to Viktor Yanukovych , a cursory ex-president of Ukraine. It was reported that in the so-called barn book of the Party of Regions found records of unregistered payments to Manafort $ 12.7 million in cash for 2007-2012. At the same time, the political strategist himself assured that "he had never received a single illegal payment."

This year, the media wrote that Manafort worked for the Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska , promoting the interests of the Kremlin. The Trump administration, like the political strategist himself, insisted that he never worked for Moscow.
