The Hill: Bill Clinton sought State’s permission to meet with Russian nuclear official during Obama uranium decision

As he prepared to collect a $500,000 payday in Moscow in 2010, Bill Clinton sought clearance from the State Department to meet with a key board director of the Russian nuclear energy firm Rosatom — which at the time needed the Obama administration’s approval for a controversial uranium deal, government records show.

Arkady Dvorkovich, a top aide to then-Russian President Dmitri Medvedev and one of the highest-ranking government officials to serve on Rosatom’s board of supervisors, was listed on a May 14, 2010, email as one of 15 Russians the former president wanted to meet during a late June 2010 trip, the documents show.

WNU Editor: A $500,000 speaking fee. A million plus dollar contribution to the Clinton Foundation from the a Kremlin-linked company that wanted to buy a U.S. based uranium company. And now we know that former President Clinton wanted to meet Russian officials linked to this uranium deal. This is the second Hill expose/article on the Clintons and this uranium deal in the past few days .... hmmmm .... it looks like someone is feeding them information . In his defense former President Clinton's aides are saying that he did not have any conversations on uranium while in Russia, and that no one connected to the deal was involved in his trip to Russia. Maybe so .... but he did get a lot of money from these people anyway, and while he did not meet any Russian officials involved in this deal, former President Clinton did meet the man that all of these officials must answer to .... and that man is Vladimir Putin. And where was that meeting .... at Putin's private residence in Sochi. Robert Mueller's commission should expand their investigation on Russian collusion .... because from my vantage point the more extensive and lucrative business relationships are between top Democrats and Kremlin-associated oligarchs and companies .... and not from President Trump or the people within his inner circle. But here is my prediction .... it is not going to happen.
