McClatchy news organization is standing by its reports that Michael Cohen visited Prague during 2016, as alleged in the Steele dossier, even though the former Trump attorney disputed the claim in sworn congressional testimony last week.
“We stand behind our reporting,” McClatchy spokeswoman Jeanne Segal told The Daily Caller News Foundation on Tuesday.
Last Wednesday, Cohen told the House Oversight and Reform Committee that he has never visited Prague or the Czech Republic.
The denial was a significant development in the longstanding debate over the Steele dossier. Cohen’s alleged Prague visit is key to the dossier’s most serious allegation of collusion between Trump associates and the Russian government.
Christopher Steele, a former British spy, claimed that Cohen visited Prague in August 2016 to meet with Kremlin officials to discuss making secret payments to Russian hackers.
Cohen has denied the dossier’s allegations since the report was published by BuzzFeed on Jan. 10, 2017. He sued BuzzFeed and Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm that hired Steele, a year later. But Cohen’s denials carried little weight until after he began cooperating with the special counsel’s office as part of the Russia probe.
And his testimony last week was the first time he has publicly disputed the Prague claim under oath.
“I’ve never been to Prague,” Cohen testified, adding: “I’ve never been to Czech Republic.”
Other than BuzzFeed, McClatchy has done the most of any news outlet to promote the Cohen-Prague theory.
