库什纳曾用私人电邮处理白宫事务

库什纳的律师洛维尔星期天在一份声明中说，库什纳在今年1月至8月间用一个私人电子邮件信箱收发了不到100封电子邮件。

洛维尔说：“这些邮件通常是转发的新闻文章或政治评论，而且大多是别人发起的，把电子邮件发送到了库什纳的私人电邮信箱而不是他的白宫电邮地址。所有的非个人电邮都转发到了他的白宫电邮地址，而且都有备份。”

根据美国法律，总统、总统工作人员、总统顾问和助理收发的通信和文件都必须保存。

川普本人曾强烈批评他去年的总统竞选对手希拉里·克林顿在担任国务卿期间用私人电邮处理公务。

U.S. President Donald Trump's son-in-law and senior White House adviser, Jared Kushner, has used a personal email account to discuss official administration business.

Kushner's lawyer, Abbe Lowell, said in a statement Sunday that Kushner received or replied to fewer than 100 messages using that account between January and August.

"These usually forwarded news articles or political commentary and most often occurred when someone initiated the exchange by sending an email to his personal rather than his White House address," Lowell said. "All non-personal emails were forwarded to his official address and all have been preserved in any event."

Under U.S. law, correspondence and other documents created or received by the president, the president's staff or anyone whose job is to advise or assist the president must be saved.

Trump has been sharply critical of Hillary Clinton, his opponent in last year's presidential race, for her use of a private email system for official business when she served as secretary of state.
