5 Things You Should Know About Trump Jr. and Russia
3. Russian Lawyer, Trump Jr. Both Deny Exchanging Info on Hillary Clinton at Meeting
Both the Russian lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, and Trump Jr. deny that any information about Clinton was given at their in-person meeting.
"I never had any damaging or sensitive information about Hillary Clinton. It was never my intention to have that," said Veselnitskaya to NBC News.
"It is quite possible that maybe they were longing for such an information. They wanted it so badly that they could only hear the thought that they wanted."
"For me this was opposition research," said Trump Jr. to Sean Hannity of Fox News. "I think I wanted to hear it out. But really it went nowhere and it was apparent that wasn't what the meeting was about."
