Jared Kushner: I did not collude with Russia

Jared Kushner says he did not collude with any foreign governments during the 2016 election. Kushner is testifying in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee on Monday in relation to the Russia probe. He released a statement prior to his testimony, claiming that he did not know the purpose of the June 2016 meeting with Russian lawyer Natalia V. Veselnitskaya, during which the Trump campaign hoped to obtain damaging information on opponent Hillary Clinton. President Trumps son-in-law and senior adviser distanced himself from the meeting. Kushner says he was invited to the meeting by his brother-in-law, Donald Trump Jr., but did not read Trumps email and tried leaving the meeting after he arrived. Donald Trump Jr. is also expected to testify in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
