Mueller said in his report that investigators did not believe they could prove Trump Jr. acted "willfully" when he possibly violated campaign finance law.
Trump at first instructed her to provide no comment, which she thought was "odd because he usually considered not responding to the press to be the ultimate sin," Mueller wrote.
Grassley also charged that Akhmetshin had been working with Fusion GPS, an opposition-research firm that had compiled a highly disputed dossier on Donald Trump. Fusion GPS has also worked on the campaign to raise questions about the story behind the Magnitsky Act.
The Associated Press quoted Akhmetshin saying that Veselnitskaya brought with her to the meeting a plastic folder with printed-out documents that detailed what she believed was a flow of illicit funds to the Democratic National Committee.
He had been working with Veselnitskaya on a campaign against the Magnitsky Act, a set of sanctions against alleged Russian human rights violators. That issue, which is also related to a ban on American adoptions of Russian children, is what Veselnitskaya told NBC News she discussed with the Trump team.
that the meeting would be with a "Russian government attorney" and that the information was "part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump.". Trump Jr. responded enthusiastically, "If it's what you say I love it especially later in the summer.".
Born in Russia, Akhmetshin served in the Soviet military and emigrated to the U.S., where he holds dual citizenship. He did not respond to NBC News requests for comment Friday, but he told the AP the meeting was not substantive. “I never thought this would be such a big deal, to be honest,” he told the AP.
It was not clear whether Futerfas was referring to Akhmetshin. Agalarov is a pop star and a client of Rob Goldstone, a music publicist who arranged the meeting with Trump Jr. Agalarov appeared in a music video with Trump when the Miss Universe pageant, which Trump owned at the time, was held in Moscow in 2013.
Alan Futerfas, the attorney retained by Donald Trump Jr., told NBC News two other people accompanied Veselnitskaya to the meeting — someone Futerfas described as a translator and someone he described as a "friend of Emin [Agalarov]’s and maybe as a friend of Natalia [Veselnitskaya]’s.”. Futerfas said he has talked with that individual.
An adviser to Republican presidential candidates since the Nixon era, Manafort repeatedly came into hot water after the election because of his failure to disclose meetings with Russian officials.
Veselnitskaya is a prominent Russian lawyer who has been accused of having ties to the Kremlin. In an interview with NBC, Veselnitskaya said she didn't have the incriminating information that Trump Jr. was looking for and denied being connected to the government in any way.
The epicenter of the email scandal, President Donald Trump's eldest son Trump Jr. agreed to meet with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya over emails with music publicist Rob Goldstone. He now serves as trustee of the Trump Organization, leading his father's business as an executive vice president with his brother, Eric Trump.
Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian lawyer who indirectly instigated the meeting, and Rinat Akhmetshin, her Russian-born lobbyist friend whom she invited to join her at the meeting, indicated that each side was looking for something promised, but not offered.
Russian lawyer Veselnitskaya invited two people to the meeting -- her interpreter and a Russian-born "colleague" named Rinat Akhmetshin, who was a registered lobbyist for a human rights foundation that is trying to restart U.S. adoptions of Russian babies.
