Trump and Russia: Political Firestorm or National Security Concern?

As new questions arise about the Trump Administration’s contacts with Russian officials, one man has been caught in the political maelstrom: Russian Ambassador to the United States Sergey Kislyak.

The most recent allegations surround Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who is said to have met with Kislyak last year —in July and September. Separately, Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn were reported to have met with Kislyak in December.
