Kislyak said Kushner suggested using Russian diplomatic facilities in the United States for the communications.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting also was attended by Michael Flynn, Trump\u2019s first national security adviser. <\/p>\n<p>The White House disclosed the meeting only in March, playing down its significance.
