Russian linked to Manafort denied immunity by congressional panels: report

A Russian oligarch with ties to former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort offered to cooperate with congressional committees probing Russia's efforts to interfere in the election, but lawmakers declined to accept his conditions, The New York Times reported Friday.

Oleg Deripaska, an aluminum magnate in Russian President Vladimir Putin's inner circle, made the offer on the condition of full immunity, three congressional officials told the Times. Lawmakers reportedly declined because it would cause problems for federal criminal investigators.
