The
Washington Post reported President Trump revealed highly classified
information to the Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrow and Ambassador Sergey
Kislyak in a White House meeting last week, according to current and former US
officials, who said Trump’s disclosures jeopardized a critical source of
intelligence on the Islamic State.
The information the
president relayed had been provided by a US partner through an
intelligence-sharing arrangement considered so sensitive that details have been
withheld from allies and tightly restricted even within the US government,
officials said.
Note the reporters
were quoting “current and former [Obama] officials. Besides Trump, Lavrov and Kislyak, the only
other officials present during the meeting were NSA head H.R. McMaster, Secretary of State Rex
Tillerson and Deputy National Security Adviser for Strategy Dina Powell. All three have adamantly declared the story as
false.
Natl Security Adviser McMaster made a statement denying a report that @POTUS revealed classified info to Russia. https://t.co/LB3P3BgT10 pic.twitter.com/gRNcLlZNvC— Fox News (@FoxNews) May 15, 2017
