Mike Flynn may be willing to testify about Russia’s influence in the election of his former boss Donald Trump — “should the circumstances permit.”

So indicated a statement released by Flynn’s lawyer Thursday evening. Flynn, the former national security advisor to Trump who was forced to resign in February after it became clear he discussed U.S. sanctions against Russia with the country’s ambassador before Trump took office, told the FBI and Congress that he is willing to be interviewed in exchange for immunity from prosecution, the Wall Street Journal reported .. https://www.wsj.com/articles/mike-flynn-offers-to-testify-in-exchange-for-immunity-1490912959 .

“General Flynn certainly has a story to tell, and he very much wants to tell it, should the circumstances permit,” his lawyer, Robert Kelner, wrote in the statement. Kelner confirmed only that Flynn was discussing potential terms with the House and Senate Intelligence Committees, not with the FBI.

Flynn’s offer, however, had reportedly not yet been accepted by officials.
