Manafort Denies Meeting With Assange

According to a report by Reuters, on Tuesday, President Donald Trump's former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, denied ever meeting with Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, after the Guardian newspaper published a story alleging the two met at least three times.

Manafort reportedly said through a spokesman, “This story is totally false and deliberately libelous.

I have never met Julian Assange or anyone connected to him.

We are considering all legal options against the Guardian, who proceeded with this story even after being notified by my representatives that it was false.”
