NewzRussian oligarch Umar Kremlev stated during a press conference in Istanbul on Tuesday that Donald Trump Jr. has repaid him for expenses related to his wedding celebration. The repayment follows a report last month by ProPublica indicating that Kremlev had initially covered hundreds of thousands of dollars in wedding costs, which included renting a private island in the Bahamas where Trump Jr. and Bettina Anderson held their party in May.
The initial revelation regarding the financing of the May celebration drew public attention due to the involvement of a Russian oligarch in funding a high-profile event for the president's eldest son. Kremlev's recent confirmation at the International Boxing Association event provides an update on the financial status of those disputed expenses, confirming that the funds have now been returned.
