Ukraine to cooperate with FBI on Manafort about Russiagate

Former campaign manager of President Trump indicted in the USA

(ANSA) - TRIESTE - The national Ukrainian prosecutor is ready to cooperate with the FBI's investigation of the activities of Paul Manafort, AP said. Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman also promised cooperation. Manafort is the former campaign manager of President Donald Trump: he and his associate Rick Gates were indicted in the USA on charges including working as unregistered foreign agents for Ukraine and its former Russia-friendly president Viktor Yanukovych.

"When the FBI asks, we of course will cooperate", Sergei Gorbatyuk, head of the prosecutor-general's office of special investigations said. He added the charges against Manafort involve officials and members of Yanukovych's Party of Regions.

Yanukovych was ousted amid massive street protests in early 2014 and fled to Russia. (ANSA).
