Trump campaign chief linked to secret Kiev cash payments


Fresh details of alleged secret payments allocated for Paul Manafort by the pro-Russian party of Ukraine’s former president have emerged after 12 itemised regime accounting entries, totalling $7.61 million, were obtained by The Times.

Detectives from the Ukrainian National Anti-Corruption Bureau have said that a further ten entries bring the total amount of payments designated for Mr Manafort to $12.7 million / CHIP SOMODEVILLA/GETTY IMAGES

The payments designated for the man who would later become Donald Trump’s campaign chief were detailed in the “black” accounting ledger of Viktor Yanukovych’s ousted regime. The ledger was used to record $2 billion allegedly handed out “under the table” to political consultants, election commissioners, ministers, parliamentarians, judges and journalists from 2007 to 2012, according to Ukrainian investigators.
