You want fries with your nothingburger? Did either project ever produce a contract?https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/co...other-trump-tower-once-planned-russia-n954801
Two Congressional aides told NBC News Trump's proposed Moscow development with Aras Agalarov is drawing new scrutiny from House and Senate investigators.
WASHINGTON — Before Donald Trump's lawyer was pitching the Kremlin on building a Trump Tower in Moscow, the future president was negotiating to put his name on a building in a separate glitzy real estate development outside the Russian capital.
The Russians dubbed the proposed suburban development "Manhattan," and a "Trump Tower" would have been its centerpiece, according to congressional testimony and news reports.
=================================================
Trump's partner in this earlier project was Aras Agalarov. He is an oligarch with close ties to V. Putin. And he is the same man whose promise of dirt on Hillary Clinton set in motion the infamous June 2016 meeting at the original Trump Tower in New York. And Trump kept proclaiming that he had no business involvement in Russia.
The Trump administration & its precursors: corruption piled on top of more corruption.
"For the record, I have ZERO investments in Russia," Trump tweeted in July 2016.
It wasn't for lack of trying. The Agalarov deal was one of five ultimately unsuccessful efforts to put the Trump name on a building in Russia, dating back to his first trip there in 1987, as he laid out in his memoir, "The Art of the Deal." A second attempt in 1996 fizzled, as did a 2005 plan with Felix Sater, the same Russian-born businessman who partnered with Cohen in another attempt in 2015 — one that wasn't abandoned until Trump had all but secured the Republican nomination for president

Congress isnt interested. The democratic party is interested if there is anything there than can damage him politically.https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/co...other-trump-tower-once-planned-russia-n954801

And . . .?Here's some more:
President Trump Defends Russia Business During Campaign | Time
President Donald Trump defended his company’s pursuit of business in Russia during his 2016 White House bid, saying that his dealings there were legal and that they ultimately ended without a project.
And . . .?
yadda, yadda, liar. You guys need a new mantra.Trump is a habitual liar. That's easy to prove by his own recorded statements, like having no business in Russia when he did. And you helped elect him president? Sorry for you & sorry for all of us. I hope the country survives 2 more years of him.
which deals were those? Has he built anything or put his name on anything. What I can see is he tried several times but nothing came to fruition.See post #3 in this thread. I'm not talking about investments. I'm talking about his statements that he had no business dealings in Russia when he actively did.
Why are you trying to defend a liar?

"I have had dealings over the years where I sold a house to a very wealthy Russian many years ago. I had the Miss Universe pageant — which I owned for quite a while — I had it in Moscow a long time ago. But other than that, I have nothing to do with Russia," Trump said.

On the range of global importance what Trump said or didn't say about his failed efforts to do business in Russia is so far down the list I could not care less. Honestly the vast majority of the "lies" you guys have nuclear panty-twisting attacks over are so minor or trivial I just ignore them.So you are happy to have elected a president who lies consistently?

Business dealing entail the exchange of money and services, e.g. doing BUSINESS. Talks and meetings are not. But "Trump!':twisted:" right? And I seriously doubt what he said about his discussions or meetings with Russian changed one vote.I posted the link about his business dealings in Russia. So what if nothing came from it. That's life. The point is he lied about ot to the American people to help get himself elected. He's a phony & a fraud as well as a liar.

I won't argue for a millisecond that I didn't vote for him. I'm just not interested in parsing every single thing he says when most of it I is trivial bull**** or nonsensical blather. When he starts lying at the level Obama did during he ACA period where he intentional tells lies to influence public opinion on serious public issue that ends punishing millions of people then I may call him on it.Boy, you can twist yourself into knots trying to convince yourself that you didn't vote for this head case.
I'm not interested in wasting my time playing word games over trivial BS.Are talks and meetings the same as "nothing to do with Russia?" Because Trump claimed that except for long long ago, he had NOTHING to do with Russia.
You seem to know more about his holdings than I do.Does anyone question Trump's interest in doing business with Russia? Whether he did or did not do business, why so much interest in Russia? After all, the rest of the world was open to him to do business.
Russia is our enemy and has always been. Sanctions against Russia had been imposed. Putin was recognized as an autocrat and a killer and Russia has not ever been considered a great place to do business in. Trump owns no hotels in Germany, or France, or China, or Japan or in many other nations where a Trump hotel could be placed that would have a better chance of being successful economically.
Why so much interest in a Hotel in Russia?
