Anonymous sources say Paul Manafort met with Julian Assange before emails were leaked

• Anonymous sources told The Guardian that Paul Manafort met with Julian Assange in 2013, 2015 and in spring 2016 before the DNC emails were leaked.
• Manafort and Wikileaks strongly deny that any meetings between Manafort and Assange ever took place.
• If the allegations are true, they may have an impact with Manafort’s plea deal with Robert Mueller, special prosecutor who is investigating Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential campaign.
