He noted that Russia had still not opened an investigation and that Russian talk shows had suggested that western intelligence officials or his own allies carried out the attack. He demanded that Russian authorities return his clothes that were removed before he was flown to Germany – “totally naked” – saying they were important evidence.

Bogatin bought five condos from Trump at that meeting. Those condos were...
