'Michael Flynn's lawyer says his client "has a story to tell", but needs to guard against "unfair prosecution".
The Senate opened its hearing earlier, with one member warning of Kremlin "propaganda on steroids".
In September, he said in a TV interview it was unacceptable that some of the Democratic candidate's aides had been granted immunity from prosecution.
"When you get given immunity that means you've probably committed a crime," he told NBC News.' |

"The leaders of the committee on Tuesday said Flynn, a former DIA head, might have broken the law by accepting payments from Russia and Turkey and later by misleading the government about them.
In December of 2015, Flynn was paid $45,000 to speak at an event hosted in Moscow by the Kremlin-backed network RT, during which he was seated with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
He also received payments for additional speeches to Russian firms Kaspersky and Volga Dnepr.
As a retired military officer, Flynn is prohibited under the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution from accepting payment from a foreign government without advance permission from both the secretary of State and the secretary of the Army.
According to House Oversight Committee ranking member Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), Flynn did not disclose the RT payment when he applied to renew his security clearance in January 2016, just a month after he traveled to Moscow." |
