Papadopoulos has not spoken publicly about the case against him Sources say Papadopoulos has privately downplayed the conversations that are the subject of the FBI investigation Sources also say Papadopoulos has privately denied collusion with the Russians.
Democrats, including California Rep. Adam Schiff, routinely cite Papadopoulos as a possible Trump campaign conduit to Russia, and his Oct. 5 guilty plea and subsequent cooperation with Mueller has fueled speculation that he has provided damaging information about the Trump campaign's activities.
Downer claimed Papadopoulos drunkenly bragged to to him about Clinton-related emails, according to The Times.
An Israeli embassy official in London named Christian Cantor introduced Papadopoulos, who he previously knew, to Erika Thompson, a counselor to Downer who serves in the Australia's London embassy.
On May 4, 2016, Papadopoulos gave an interview to The London Times calling on Cameron to apologize to Trump over negative comments about the then-GOP candidate.
Thompson reached out to Papadopoulos two days after that story appeared and said Downer wanted to meet with the young Trump aide.
The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence is interested in finding out how the information from Downer made its way to the FBI. In late-July 2016, Australia's ambassador to the U.S., Joe Hockey, told his American counterparts about Downer's claims about the Papadopoulos conversation.
