WashPost: Blackwater Founder Secretly Met With Russian to Create Trump-Putin Link

The brother of Education Secretary Betsy DeVos reportedly met with someone close to Russian President Vladi­mir Putin in January in an effort to create an off-the-record communications link between Putin and President Donald Trump.

The Washington Post reports that Erik Prince, who founded the Blackwater security firm in 1997, traveled to the Seychelles islands in the Indian Ocean for the two-day meeting that began Jan. 11. The alleged encounter was organized by Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed al-Nahyan, the crown prince of the United Arab Emirates, and his brother, who serves as the UAE's national security adviser.
