We're investigating what led Trump and AG Barr to attempt to interfere in the indictment of Turkey's Halkbank, which in October was charged with money laundering and fraud from its effort to skirt U.S. sanctions on Iran. americanoversight.org/investigation/…
Trump himself had reportedly asked Barr and Sec. Mnuchin to work with Turkish President Erdogan on the matter. Rudy Giuliani was involved on behalf of one of his clients. And Halkbank had the support of a Trump-connected lobbying firm.
According to CNN, Barr "personally spearheaded" an effort to negotiate a settlement with the bank — news that comes on the heels of his intervention in the Roger Stone case: cnn.com/2020/02/15/pol…
We've filed nearly a dozen FOIAs for Justice, State and Treasury Department communications about Halkbank — including with the White House and Giuliani. americanoversight.org/investigation/…
