Donald Trump will testify under oath in New York on Wednesday. It is about real estate transactions of his company. Investigations into this have been going on for a long time.
Investigations against Donald Trump and his previous real estate deals have been underway in New York for months. On Wednesday, the former US President himself will be questioned under oath. This is reported, among other things, by the “New York Times”. According to US media, Trump himself also announced on his Truth social account in the morning that he would have to testify on Wednesday.
At the center of the investigation are allegations that the Trump Organization is said to have given false information about the values of golf courses and high-rise buildings in order to deceive lenders and tax authorities.
Trump rumbled against the subpoena via Truth Social. According to the New York Times, he had been fighting for months against having to make statements today. Apparently in vain in the end. Trump called his subpoena a continuation of the “biggest witch hunt in US history.”
