The Telegraph seems to think there is enough evidence in this story to go out on a limb.

Oligarch met with top Russian official after Trump aide 'offered briefings'

The have published a photo of the "Russian oligarchs Oleg Deripaska, whom Paul Manafort reportedly offered briefings on the Trump campaign."

The oligarch and top Kremlin may be discussing Manafort's collusion efforts.
At least that seems to be what the escort who was present claims.

The video, link below, is like 25 minutes long and you have to read the subtitles.

Oh maybe more to this.

The claim comes really from within Russia.

"Opposition leader Alexei Navalny has published a video investigation claiming that Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska acted as a messenger between U.S. President Donald Trump’s ex-campaign chief Paul Manafort and a top Kremlin foreign policy official, citing footage of a meeting on a yacht."

Summary of video.

Again warning lots of girls working as "escorts". However, important thing is Manafort's employer the oligarch is partying next to a top Kremlin official and discussing politics. American politics according to the Telegraph.

I gather this claim came from the book published by the escort. She was right there listening and video taping these two men who are obviously talking about something.

" A caption said the two men were trying to “solve the issue with America”."

Reportedly this is the call made by the Russian to the Kremlin to discuss Manafort's collusion efforts.

My personal level of confidence in this story is low. Thoughts?

Why would that happen, when Manafort just helped the Ukraine smash back Russian involvement into their elections? Russia hates Manafort.

Manafort's key employer of late has been that Russian oligarch and not the former Ukraine president.

Manafort just cares where his next millions of dollars will come from.

Manafort obviously saw an opportunity to exploit his position with the Trump campaign to obtain cash.

That is why he was willing to work for Trump for free since he was going to get millions from Russia.

The video is absolute proof that Manafort's employer was in direct contact with the Kremlin. That guy sitting next to him on the yacht even holds the same job that Putin once held.

I just did a quick check.

Timeline of Paul Manafort's role in the Trump campaign - ABC News

Manafort was still with Trump campaign when Manafort's employer and this Kremlin official met on that yacht in early August 2016.

If they were talking American politics and employing Manafort for millions of dollars, I highly doubt they were discussing how to ensure Clinton is elected.

There are two Russian yachts next to me now. I just know a few words of Russian. So I can check what they are actually saying by paying them a visit.
