Donald Trump Jr's post-wedding parties funded by Russian oligarch under investigation by US Democrats
In short:
An investigation is underway into reports that a Russian oligarch paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for the wedding celebrations of President Donald Trump's son earlier this year.
Umar Kremlev, a Russian businessman and president of the International Boxing Association, paid for two lavish parties for Donald Jr and his wife, Bettina, in the Bahamas in May.
What's next?
Robert Garcia, the senior Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, is expected to lead a deeper investigation if his party wins a majority in the US House of Representatives in November's midterm elections.
