The House Intelligence Committee will issue a subpoena to Felix Sater, a former business associate of President Donald Trump who was the chief negotiator for the failed Trump Tower Moscow project, after he failed to show up for a voluntary interview Friday morning.

“The committee had scheduled a voluntary staff-level interview with Mr. Sater, but he did not show up this morning as agreed,” said Patrick Boland, a spokesman for Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.). “As a result, the committee is issuing a subpoena to compel his testimony.”

Sater told POLITICO that the interview is “being rescheduled.”

The Trump Tower Moscow project has been a central focus of the Democrat-led committee’s investigation into whether Trump is compromised by foreign actors.
