Report: Mueller has Evidence of Cohen Prague Trip

Michael Cohen denied ever going to the Czech Republic, where the Steele Dossier alleged that he’d met with a Russian operative during the 2016 campaign.

Special counsel Robert Mueller reportedly has evidence that President Trump’s personal attorney Michael Cohen made a secret trip to Prague during the 2016 campaign to meet with a Russian operative and strategize “about Russian meddling in the U.S. election,” according to McClatchy. The dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele had alleged that Cohen met in Prague to “‘clean up the mess’ created by public disclosures of other Trump associates’ reported ties to Russia,” but Cohen has emphatically denied having ever been to the Czech Republic. Mueller’s team reportedly traced evidence of Cohen entering the Czech Republic through Germany, which he wouldn’t have needed a passport for due to open border laws in some European countries.
