The defense team for former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort acknowledged in a new filing that Manafort shared 2016 presidential campaign polling data with someone with ties to Russian intelligence, but said he did not breach the terms of his plea deal agreement.

The defense team also admitted that Manafort was unable to remember certain topics about which special counsel Robert Mueller has accused him of lying, but said it does not wish to have a hearing on the issue of breaching his plea deal.
