In 2016, Christopher Steele exposed Donald Trump’s contacts with Russia. Now the British ex-secret service agent is warning again about his election victory – and stands by his explosive dossier from back then.
Christopher Steele will never forget January 10, 2017. Even today, his face hardens when he talks about it.
It’s the day the world learns through a leak that he, Steele, a former officer in the British foreign intelligence service MI6, is behind the explosive dossier about Donald Trump’s Russian connections. The report, which was only intended for internal purposes, caused a huge political scandal in the 2016 US election campaign. 35 pages tell of Trump’s Kremlin contacts during the election campaign, ominous real estate deals and sex parties in Moscow. But since many allegations could not be confirmed, the “Steele dossier” is still considered extremely controversial today.
