PROOF: Trump Tower Moscow Had Land And Plans His Lawyer Lied To Hide It
In case this wasn't posted elsewhere.Newly discovered Russian news reports prove that Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen has told a series of bombshell lies to the media.
<snip>
Initial plans dated all the way back to 2013 and the Miss Universe Moscow pageant. Development partners the Agalarov family confirmed Crocus City as the Trump Tower site as late as 2015, during the campaign.
Democratic Coalition co-founder Scott Dworkin unearthed a July 3rd, 2015 story in Russia’s state-run TASS news agency during the presidential campaign with one of Trump’s oligarch partners.
Emin Agalarov — who set up with his agent Rob Goldstone, Don Jr.’s infamous meeting with Russian agents for dirt on Hillary Clinton — told TASS reporters that the real estate deal would survive the political campaign (via Google Translate):
“Donald Trump, despite the difficult international political situation, is still interested in this project. We are in the process of negotiations, but due to the fact that Trump is nominated for the presidency, and our plans are constantly being adjusted, it can still change.”
“In case this project is implemented (under the Trump Tower brand), the participation of an American billionaire involves the provision of a brand and technologies for this facility. The investment component of the Crocus Group will be handled independently, "Agalarov added.
Trump had entered the Republican primary campaign two weeks earlier, on June 16th, 2015.
TASS reported that a bank loan of up to $100 million from state-owned Sberbank would be sought for the $170 million Moscow Tower project.
Sberbank sponsored Miss Universe 2013 and announced $2.4 billion in financing for the Trump project with Crocus just days after the pageant concluded, but landed on America’s sanctions list over the Ukraine invasion in March 2014.
Mother Jones reports that Crocus City obtained local zoning approval just days after the now-infamous Trump Tower meeting for dirt on Hillary Clinton in 2016.

Trump also purportedly signed a letter of intent with a Russian building development company on October 28th, 2015, which itself has relations with sanctioned financial companies. - The Stern Facts
