Questionable Act: Cohen met with Russian oligarch Viktor Vekselberg at Trump Tower

On Jan 9, Cohen met with Russian oligarch Viktor Vekselberg at Trump Tower. They discussed strengthening U.S.-Russia relations under Trump. Why? Why not use regular channels? Cohen later received $500,000 from a Vekselberg company.

Verified: This act is not in dispute, and nothing illegal has been reported.
