NEW YORK (Reuters) - A supporter of U.S. President Donald Trump paid the president's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani $500,000 (£390,076) on behalf of a company co-founded by a Ukrainian-American businessman who helped Giuliani investigate Trump's political rival Joe Biden, the supporter's lawyer told Reuters on Thursday.

Reuters first reported the payment last month but at the time Giuliani declined to disclose the exact source. He would only say that it was not foreign in origin and that it was payment for services he rendered to the company of the businessman, Lev Parnas.
