Trump Says He Pardoned Former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn

Описание: President Donald Trump said he has pardoned Michael Flynn, his first national security advisor, who had plead guilty to lying to FBI agents about his conversation with the Russian ambassador to the U.S., Bloomberg News reports.

Trump made the announcement Wednesday on Twitter.

The pardon brings to an apparent close a long and bitterly fought criminal case that became a cause celebre for Trump and his conservative allies, who portrayed the prosecution of Flynn as evidence of a broad conspiracy against the president.
