CNN: Butina agreed to cooperate with American investigators NEW YORK, December 13. /TASS/ — the TV channel notes that the cooperation is limited. Upstairs Russian Maria Butina, arrested in the United States, agreed to cooperate with American investigators, offering them information about the United States citizen, with whom she allegedly conspired, and the Russians, at the direction of which she allegedly acted. This was announced Wednesday by CNN. Previously, NBC announced that Butina made a deal with investigators in which she intends to plead guilty in violation of American laws on foreign agents. Thus, she could face up to six months in prison, followed by deportation to Russia. Hearings in the court of the district of Columbia, which Butina is expected to change his testimony and plead guilty to one or more counts, will be held on Thursday. The plea, which the Russian went, implies cooperation with the American authorities.
