Trump pardons two linked to Russia probe, others
AFP, WASHINGTON
US President Donald Trump on Tuesday granted pardons to two people linked to a probe into alleged collusion between his campaign and Russia along with a list of others as time ticks away on his remaining weeks in office.
The White House said in a statement that Trump had granted full pardons to 15 people and commuted all or part of the sentences for five others.
A full pardon was given to George Papadopoulos, a former Trump campaign adviser who admitted lying to federal investigators about his contacts with Russians.
Papadopoulos was a member of Trump’s foreign policy advisory panel when he ran for president in 2016.
