Donald Trump Jr. has agreed to privately testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee in mid-June, people familiar with the matter told CNN Tuesday.

Under the terms of the deal, President Trump's eldest son will testify for up to four hours, answering questions related to five or six topics. Members of the committee will be allowed to ask Trump Jr. questions about his June 2016 meeting with Russians at Trump Tower and the Trump Tower Moscow project, CNN reports. This will also be the final time Trump Jr. will be asked to appear before the panel regarding its probe into Russian meddling during the 2016 election.
