Sens. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., and Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., on Friday asked Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to provide them with all documents that would shed insight on commitments President Trump made during his summit last month with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki.
Senior staff and experts were not present during the first part of Trump’s meeting with Putin, and only translators in the room. As a result, Menendez and Shaheen are requesting that members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee receive classified and unclassified cable traffic, interpreter’s notes, memoranda of conversations, and policy directives about the summit.
